Turning your computer off and back on again will solve 90% of your problems.

Of the other 10% an additional reboot while on the phone with the IT person solves those.

Yep, I turn off my devices when I'm done with them. I'll restart my phone from time to time.

Most software isn't made for patchwork while running. Sometimes even if it's on a server lol. The stuff that is gets tested quite a bit.

Turning off and back on is not the same as restarting. If you want to force a restart like turn off, hold shift while clicking shutdown.

You have a very strange phone.

Sounds like the windows 10 'innovation' called fast startup. Some genius decided instead of shutting down, let's just log the user out and put the OS into standby... That'll save a lot of boot time!

It's universally hated by IT and made redundant by SSDs
