Shut-off after 60 seconds Bitlocker

Hi,

When I leave the Bitlocker log-in screen inactive for 60 seconds the computer just shuts off. Is this a feature, a bug, or some hardware issue? I already reinstalled Windows.

    This fix worked for me too on a Dell XPS 8700 with the problem for 2 years & multiple attempts to resolve.

    Well done that man at Asus

    This is really a huge deal!! I can confirm this:

    bcdedit /set {bootmgr} bootshutdowndisabled 1

    working on the following system:

    Intel Xeon E3 1231 v3

    Asus H97-Pro (UEFI 2705)

    4x 4096MB Kingston KVR1333D3N9/4G

    Samsung SSD 840 EVO (Firmware EXT0CB6Q) (Hardware Accelerated Encryption)

    ASUS Strix NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970

    Enermax MODU87+ 600W

    Windows 8.1 Pro 64bit

    There is a MSDN page that documents the setting (https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa362652%28v=vs.85%29.aspx):

    "BcdLibraryBoolean_BootShutdownDisabled: Disables the 1-minute timer that triggers shutdown on boot error screens, and the F8 menu, on UEFI systems."

    Asus support got back to me today and proposed a solution that (so far) works.  Let me know if this works for anyone else:

    open up command prompt window as administrator:

    type in this command:            bcdedit /set {bootmgr} bootshutdowndisabled 1

    press enter key, wait couple seconds then exit window. reboot the system and see if issue is resolved.

    Hi

    This is also working for me. I have a Dell Inspiron 2350 AIO PC and have been having this issue for almost a year now. Neither Microsoft nor Dell could resolve this issue - and from the resolution above which seems to be working it appears to be a very simple solution!

    Thanks for the post!
