Computer restart required

[techguy 0]

I can't revive a 3 month old thread, so let's just use the same subject. Why eset nod always ask to be restarted when the computer was shut down after the update? I search the forum and found unanswered topic as far back 2014!

Couldn't it be that you have Windows 8.1 or Windows 10 and fast startup enabled? (https://www.howtogeek.com/243901/the-pros-and-cons-of-windows-10s-fast-startup-mode/)

In that case, the computer is not actually shutdown, hence a reboot is required after upgrade.
