I have enabled Fast Startup in the Control Panel, but it doesn't work at all. Every time I shut down, my laptop performs a full shutdown, causing both shutdown and boot times to be longer. If it were just a few seconds, I wouldn't mind, but it takes 2 minutes to boot up even though I'm using an SSD as the main storage. The Task Manager shows the Uptime always resetting.

Device specifications:
- Windows 10 Home
- Ryzen 7 4700U
- 20 GB DDR4 RAM (16 + 4) 2666 MHz
- 500 GB M.2 SSD
- 1 TB External HDD (USB 3.0)

Initially, I believed that the External HDD was causing the issue. However, even when disconnected, the boot time remains the same. I have tried disabling and enabling Fast Startup but it still doesn't work. This has been happening for several months, but not more than six months.
Any help or insights would be greatly appreciated.
