hey guys wonder if anyone could maybe help me work this out

constantly getting the "Windows was not properly shut down" after checking in reliability monitor almost everyday
in the monitor it seems to be at the same time stamp as the sercurity intellegence update microsoft defender antiV!

first time using windows 11 since my current build and still unsure if i like it or not.
also another thing for some reason when waking my pc from sleep my monitor seems to take a while to wake where as the pc jumps to life in about a second?
unsure if this has anything todo with it.

ive matched this up with my sons build running windows 10 with 3 monitors and it jumps to life?

Do you turn off the mains after switching the PC off? Windows 10/11 doesn't fully shut down by default and actually in some sort of hybrid sleep mode. Search for "Control Panel" -> "System and Security" -> "Change what the power buttons do" under "Power Options" -> "Change settings that are currently unavailable" and uncheck "Turn on fast startup". Save changes and see if it happens again in future.

no never from the mains as i have my nas and other bits plugged in to that outlet.
ive swithced off fast start up as it was already on.
gonna go and have some dinner in a bit and turn it off as ive been playing cod with the new update and its shocking lol
hopefully see if i can recreate the error or not ;-)

still unsure thow about my monitor taking a while to turn on which is just as annoying!
me and my boy both have the same main screen,
his is turned off via the mains as i dont like the idea of him leaving it plugged into the mains why we sleep
