Some people do not shutdown their laptop, instead either they put it to sleep mode or hibernate it so that they can just touch any key on the keyboard to wake it up and start working. And on the other hand, most people prefer to shutdown their system properly so that they know their laptop machine is totally off. Keeping the preferences of people in mind, Microsoft introduced a feature call Fast Start Up in windows 8 and then later they retained it in windows 10 and windows 11.
Enable or Disable Fast Start Up on windows 11
This feature has been designed to reduce the time it takes for a computer to boot. Instead of performing a complete shutdown, Windows saves part of the operating system's state, including system files and drivers, to a special hibernation file when you shut down your PC. The next time you power it on, Windows loads this saved information instead of starting everything from scratch, resulting in a faster startup experience.
However, there are situations where disabling Fast Startup can be beneficial. One common reason is troubleshooting hardware or driver issues. Since Fast Startup does not perform a fully clean shutdown, certain drivers or hardware components may not reset properly between sessions. Turning the feature off forces Windows to perform a complete shutdown and startup cycle, which can help resolve persistent system problems.
