this is a feature called "fast startup" with this feature on, your pc never really turns off, instead it goes into a very lower power state
this feature is on by default
to turn off click start type control panel
then click power options
then click "choose what power buttons do" located in the top left
then click "change settings that are currently unavailable" at the top and uncheck "turn on fast startup"
its much easier to go in via control panel then to search for power options and adjust via the new interface IMO

right click start button
choose powershell (admin)
type SFC /scannow and press enter
once its completed, copy/paste this command into same window:

Repair-WindowsImage -Online -RestoreHealth
and press enter


SFC fixes system files, second command cleans image files, re run SFC if it failed to fix all files and restart PC

Try running windows update, there is one version after the one you on.

Launch CMD as administrator
Type the following command then press enter: shutdown /p and then press Enter.

it could be the psu since I assume its same age as everything else in PC.

Agree
If the PSU have not been replaced..it is a 10 year old PSU that might be on its way out.
A failing motherboard could also be the cause of the issue.

Try this
Click Start, Settings icon and select System.
On the left pane click on Power & sleep, then click on Additional power settings link.
On the left pane click on Choose what the power buttons do
When I press the power button
change it to Shutdown
When I press the sleep button
change it to Shutdown
Click the Save changes button.
Press the power (short press) and see if the system shuts down completely.
