Windows 10 - Beware Shudown is Not a Shutdown if Fast Restart is Enabled

>>quote:

As Microsoft has said, if you have this issue simply reboot. Don't shut down, reboot.

I bet you're asking... What's the difference between a reboot a shutdown? Aren't they both theoretically the same except that one triggers the motherboard to shutdown? Technically yes, they should be the same but they aren't because of something called "Fast Start".

In Windows 10 a shutdown is really a mini-hibernate if Fast Start is enabled. It stores an image of the main Windows memory in a file on the primary storage device. On power up, it can then quickly reload that image and just partially reset some devices. A reboot is different, it reloads everything as versus a shutdown and power-up.

To disable Fast Start, do the following...

1. Type Control Panel in the search box.
2. Click Control Panel.
3. Click Power Options.
4. Click Choose what the power buttons do.
5. Click Change settings that are currently unavailable.
6. Scroll down to Shutdown settings and uncheck Turn on fast startup.
7. Click Save changes.

Windows 10 - reset TCPIP

netsh int ip reset c:\resetlog.txt

And if you notice an element that says not resetting
head to the following key and give full permissions

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Nsi\
    {eb004a00-9b1a-11d4-9123-0050047759bc}\26

Alternate fix sometimes needed:
 
             netsh winsock reset 

This article also show how to remove and then reinstall TCPIP
Hint: export the Netbios key, delete some keys, install protocol, select "Have Disk" and point to C:\windows\inf and pick tcpip.
