From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

My son's Windows laptop did the same. Turns out there is a setting to make Windows truly shut down when selecting "shut down" from the menu, because normally it secretly sleeps or hibernates or something to have faster start-up times. There's also the power another device via USB option that you may have to disable in BIOS / EFI settings.
