What's the impact of disabling fast startup?

Question

Hi Guys,

For a long time, we have been troubled by such a problem. We're using InkCanvas to receive ink strokes. There're some other buttons on the XAML which're used to clear the strokes or clear the previous operations. When we click these buttons several times, the UI will be blocked. We haven't found the root cause.

Recently, we found that if we disable the fast startup of windows settings. This problem never happened again.

I'm not sure there is a necessary relationship between them. So, could you help me confirm it?

Thanks

Hello, Welcome to Micorosoft Q&A,

Recently, we found that if we disable the fast startup of windows settings. This problem never happened again.

It's hard to say, the windows fast start up is very complex system, it may cache some temp data during machine turn off. But there is not document telling it will cache ink strokes. I also test with photo app draw function, unfortunately we can't reproduce your problem. you could make a blank app and detect if the problem is related with clear method. or share your code here. And you could also report this problem with windows feed back app.

Check the event viewer for error messages related to fast startup.

Fast startup can be turned off manually or by turning off hibernation.
