If Shutdown is set to occur via a timer delay, and this is allowed to run all the way to zero to activate Shutdown, where type of shutdown is either hibernate or sleep: then when the computer restarts to login screen, it immediately performs the same shut down again, causing a loop which is impossible to escape. (Have to reboot to safe mode).
I get the Windows 10 login screen for about 1-2 seconds, before it goes back into hibernation, so not enough time to get in and stop it. I assume the shutdown timer window is still trying to complete it's shutdown request, or is retrying it again - I think I managed to log in quickly once and saw the timer screen still there/doing its thing. This issue doesn't happen if 'Immediate stop action' is selected, or if you click the 'Immediate Shutdown' button on the shutdown timer window.
In Private Sub Shutdown_Timer_Tick, there is only one line after the Shutdown command:
I have expanded the commands after the Shutdown command, and it seems to work for me in every situation I try now. I am not sure if this is the best/appropriate coding to actually change, but works for me, and will reactivate on next power loss. I can log back in after restart, and WinNut is still running normally with no sign of the timer process that seems to be causing the problem.
