After a decade of frustration, Microsoft finally fixes "Update and shut down" Windows bug

SMRTR summary

Microsoft has fixed a long-standing Windows bug where selecting "Update and shut down" would install updates but then boot back to the login screen instead of powering off completely. This issue particularly frustrated laptop users who returned to dead batteries after expecting their devices to be shut down overnight. The fix arrives through Windows 11 servicing stack update KB5067035, though some users may hesitate to install it given Windows 11's unreliable update history.
