When I choose to put the computer in Standby mode from the “Turn Off Computer” window the computer shuts down instead, and then when I start it up it goes into Standby mode. If that’s followed by a Force Restart the computer starts up properly.
Is it a hardware issue or a software issue?
Everything seems to be fine in the Power Options control panel.
Do you have a solution?

Check your bios settings. There should be an option for standby.
