Glad you have it running properly now, but.

Isn't using the power button forcing a shut down?

Thought the only way to safely shut down Windows was from the start menu.

Yes. That was a forced shutdown.

Sorry, read that as your usual way of switching your PC off.

Best to do it during an update I hear!

Definitely

Have you turned off "Wake on LAN" in the bios? I had a problem with my server where if I shut it down it would immediately automatically turn itself back on again, disabling "Wake on LAN" fixed the issue.
