I've been an IT professional for nearly 30 years and it seems like every new version of Windows they do everything they can to make me feel like an idiot who has never used a computer before. Simple things like turning off the computer isn't intuitive. I only use Windows at work now, my personal computers are all either linux or MacOS... and I just installed linux on my old 2012 Macbook and 'it just (mostly) works'.
Lol like that's even possible in Windows. I can't remember the last version I had where the "Power Off" option actually worked. I still just hold down the physical power button until I hear that click.
It used to be that if you disabled hibernate or something, it would actually shut down completely then start back up fresh when powered on, instead of that hybrid startup thing.
If there's some new, worse version then I have no idea, lol.
