Windows' might be complex, but it is NOT graceful. If you have notepad open with unsaved text, then shutdown will never shut down - but nothing on the screen will make this obvious to a non-technical person.
Unless there are security updates to install, then everything will be mercilessly killed
Praise be Cortana and IE's reinstallation!
F’ing notepad every time.
This isn't the default behavior of Win10 Pro without a DC. I don't know enough about graceful shutdowns to have a perspective. Maybe Home has a different user presentation than Pro?
Unrelated: I'm trying to get from two Virtualbox Mint VMs to one paravirtualized (docker?) image, then to move to physical hardware. When I'm ready, where in the fediverse should I ask for assistance?
