Disable Fast startup
Your computer uses Fast startup to start quickly, but also

These checks will slowly drain your computer’s battery.
If you prefer to reduce your computer’s power requirements
and environmental impact, turn off Fast startup:
1. Press the
Windows key
or select the
Windows Start button
then select
Settings
>
System
>
Power & sleep.
2. Select
Additional power settings.
3. Select
Choose what the power buttons do
.
Note
If Fast startup is off, your computer will take longer to start from
Sleep.
Your computer will also not start if it receives an instruction to
start over a network (Wake on LAN).
