The Case

When turning on the computer, the system only showed the blue Windows pane and circling dots weren’t shown. Sometimes restarting the computer resolved the problem temporarily.

Fortunately, this is not a serious issue, and the solution to this problem is very simple. This problem is caused by the Windows 10 feature called “Fast Startup”, and disabling this feature will solve everything.

In Windows 8, Microsoft introduced a new feature FAST STARTUP during which allows your computer to start faster than normal by logging off the users’ session and saving system related files and drivers to a special hibernation file. Although this feature helps you to boot your system even faster than normal boot up, it can also cause several errors.
