Update/Download/Shutdown Stalls

[Hare]

Selecting shutdown computer starts downloading updates and warns "Do not shut power off". Upon completion of downloads computer won't finish shutdown and I have to force shutdown. Restart is normal.
I upgraded from Win 7 to Win 10 in Feb. This is the 3rd update since the upgrade and the result has been the same each time; shutdown won't complete after download is complete and I have to force the shutdown, startup is normal finishing the update.
My W10 is a 64 bit, Home Version 1909

Hi Hare,

I would try a reset which may solve the problem?, you may well have to install your apps but keep your data intact when you check the right box!:

Reset Windows 10 (from within Windows)

If you've got severe problems with Windows 10 and need to perform more drastic measures to get things working again, you can reset the installation. Your PC will be restored to "as new" condition, with all 3rd party apps removed. You can choose...

I'm not ready to do that. W10 is operating normally other than that. The next time I have an update I'm going to select update/restart instead of shutdown and see if that allows a normal shutdown/restart.

Okay, keep us posted please.

ok, will probably be several weeks before I get another update as I'm up to date now.

Try this to assist MS and do remember that many updates require A Reboot to finish... and depends on how long or fragmented your OS is as to how long it takes MS to update properly and then reboot to give new OS
