When they introduced fast startup in windows 8 :( You can disable fast startup, which eliminates the problem. Honestly, though, it’s better to use the real restart at the first sign of questionable stuff.
Considering many don’t properly restart, Windows 10 / 11 are remarkably stable compared to Windows 7, and when updates force you to restart, it does it the proper way.
That’s fucked I’ve been thinking I’m a good boy shutting down my computer whenever I don’t need to use it to ensure that I don’t get any slow down. Why on earth would you name it “shut down” at that point?
One of win 8’s targets was to decrese boot times. Bios was slow, so Win 8.1 was designed to take advantage of UEFI. While they were there, they decided to ‘cache’ the kernel to make it super fast.
But it was just the kernel. All your apps still had to load again from scratch. They should have called it hybrid sleep visibly in the UI. But the change was confusing, so they just hit it.
Wtf, when did this happen?
