It's hilarious that so many issues in Windows can be fixed with a restart but then they made it not actually restart when turned off and on again.

My understanding (unless they've changed it) was that a restart is a restart because software (either the OS or 3rd party software or both) may need the computer restarted to finish installing or updating stuff.

I'd heard that a shutdown wasn't actually a shutdown, though.

That's right, that's what I meant to say haha but it wasn't worded great.
