Updated from 24H2.

I have to force shutdown via power button every time.

    Full filesystem validation is probably a good place to start:

    chkdsk /r

    dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth

    sfc /scannow

    I generally run Memtest86 and a disk diagnostic before running this - an adverse condition in either part can make these commands cause problems instead of fixing them.

      Windows needs to send all your keystrokes, browser history, and screenshots of everything you’ve been doing to the Microsoft servers before shutting down, just in case you’re shutting it down for the last time and it might not have a chance to send that later.
