Laptop always "shutting down"

[Tatiana95]

Hello,

Please I need help with my Dell laptop. For three days now, when I try to put it on the screen shows "shutting down", with no end. I tried taking the battery out and putting it back but it didn't help. It doesn't even start up, always shows "shutting down". Any advice, please. Thank you

Try booting in "Safe Mode" and see if it will start.

How to enter "Safe Mode" when booting the computer.

In Windows 8 and 10 ...

As your computer restarts, press F8 (possibly a few times) to enter "Safe Mode"

a. Press the "F4" key to Enable "Safe Mode".
(The computer will then start in "Safe Mode" with a minimal set of drivers and services.)

b. Press the "F5" key to Enable "Safe Mode" with Networking.
( Once "Safe Mode" with Networking starts, Windows is in Safe Mode, with additional network and services for accessing the Internet and other computers on your network.)

c. Press the "F6" key to Enable "Safe Mode" with Command Prompt.
(In "Safe Mode" with "Command Prompt" starts Windows in Safe Mode, with a Command Prompt window instead of the Windows interface. This option is mostly only used by IT professionals.)

Now sign in to the computer with your account name and password. (If you have one set.) When you are finished troubleshooting, you can exit "Safe Mode" restarting your computer.

Thank you for your reply. I tried it, but it seems to be permanently stuck in 'shutting down' screen...
What else can I do?
Thank you again

Did you turn off the laptop before trying this? That is always best.
