A recent Microsoft Patch Tuesday update has caused a bug in Windows 11 23H2, preventing some PCs from shutting down or entering hibernation. The issue is linked to the Secure Launch feature, which affects systems that have it enabled. Microsoft recommends using the command “shutdown /s /t 0” to force shutdown, while advising users to save their work to avoid unexpected power loss. The company acknowledges the problem on its Windows release health dashboard and is expected to address it soon.
