What is your Windows 11 restart time?


Windows 11 on my incompatible machine with an SATA SSD
cmd_thoWWPwAZQ.png

I modified Restart-Time to make it logoff and login. I called it Logoff-Time.

Does anyone notice a subtle bug in my batch script, which will fail to work in a certain circumstance?

It will not break anything. It will just fail to work in a certain circumstance, which is not very likely to arise.

Almost all scripts is not perfect. It will break on a certain circumstance on PC's configuration. Like happened on my scripts that break when Windows is on different language.

The problem with the batch script has nothing to do with language but to do with the path of the folder containing the script., i.e. the file path. The problem can be fixed easily.

I have a completely different method of testing restart times. It's called a stopwatch.

52 seconds but my SSD is SATA, not NVme and I have 2 AHK scripts that run at startup. One disables the side buttons on my mouse because I can't keep from accidentally clicking them and the other one turns on scroll lock which is what needs to happen for my keyboard backlight to turn on. It doesn't show me the time until the keyboard lights up. Without those scripts , I would say it would be at least 10 seconds faster.

73 seconds for me, and I boot from a Samsung 970 PCIe SSD. But my system BIOS (ASUS B360M motherboard) waits for about 30 seconds before it starts to load Windows - as indicated by the rotating dots. I can't find a BIOS setting to eliminate this pause - I think it's there to allow time to push a key for changing the boot drive or opening the BIOS screen.

If I re-run the tool now (restart again), the display would be, my guess that's last measure time (amazing long 508 sec).
If no re-run. then no result. displaying "Access is denied".

If I close all background apps/services too, it will probably drop to half or even less. Not going to do that though since it does not reflect real world usage then. These are quite normal values for any machine I've ever worked on and set up to fit my usage.

What version of Windows was running on the old computer?
Since it said "Access is denied", the script possibly had no permission to add/delete a Registry key.
Try running the script again with administrative privileges.

It was running XP.
Present is Windows 11 Pro.

I was running the tool as administrator (You can read the chart title).

But once it restarts, it will lose this administrative privileges (chart title no administrator any more after restart).
