I'm trying to figure out why I can't get my Laptop to shut down and reading through some threads they mention the Power Efficiency Diagnostics Report and this should tell you why it won't shut down. I'm able to get shutdown/restart to work in Safe mode with everything disabled. Just need help understanding some of these errors and what needs to be changed to fix them.
