What is Fast Startup?

Fast Startup is a feature in windows 10 & 8 Os designed to minimize the time taken for a PC to boot up from being fully shutdown. Leaving Fast Startup enabled should not harm anything on your computer – it’s a feature built into the windows Os – But there are a few reasons why you might want to disable it, which includes:
  1. It prevents the computer from performing a regular shutdown and can cause compatibility issues with devices that do not support sleep mode or hibernation.
  2. Disabling it helps save hard drive space that is usually taken up with the hibernation file.
  3.  It probably could cause the power button on the keyboard to malfunction, which might be unfavorable.
  4. Finally, Windows 10 updates might not install properly if you have Fast Startup enabled.
