The PC won’t shut down or put it to sleep when the gamepad is removed. Try adjusting settings or checking for conflicts without disconnecting it.
Certain gadgets or operations might stop a computer from shutting down, sometimes moving it into "Sleep Status" but then forcing it back to the login screen. You can examine the power settings for the affected device and turn it off so it stays "Always On".
