I had already tried what you mentioned , it did not resolve my issue. I had to downgrade the "Inter Engine Management Interface" to its 9.5 version , only then the problem was resolved.

I would like to take a moment to thank you for posting on the HP Support Forums. I understand that you have an HP Pavilion 15-n225tu Notebook and it does not shut down when you try to shut it down in Windows OS. You have to shut it down by pressing and holding the power button for some time. I'd like to help you with this case. 

 

I recommend you to perform the below steps to isolate the issue and arrive at a solution: 

You can save power by specifying what the computer does when you close the lid or when you press the power button.

  • Depending on the setting you specify, pressing the power button causes the computer to do one of the following: Do nothing, Sleep, Hibernate, or Shut down.

  • Depending on the setting you specify, closing the lid causes the computer to do one of the following: Do nothing, Sleep, Hibernate, or Shut down.

  • In Windows, search for and open Power Options.

  • In the left pane, click Choose what the power buttons do or Choose what closing the lid does.

  • Figure: Power button and closing the lid options

  • To change settings for the power button, the sleep button, or the lid when it is closed, click the settings and select the desired settings for use when using the battery or when the computer is plugged in. Then click Save changes.

Once you perform the above steps, please check the performance of the PC. You may have to restart the PC once for the changes to take place. If issue persists then please refer to below steps:

 

Using the Power troubleshooter to fix problems:

Use the Windows Power troubleshooter to automatically adjust the computer power timeout settings.

To run the Power troubleshooter, complete these steps:

  • In Windows, search for troubleshooting and open Troubleshooting Control panel.

  • In the Troubleshoot computer problems window, and under System and Security click Improve power usage.

    Figure : Troubleshoot computer problems

    Troubleshoot computer problems
  • Click Next to find and fix problems with the power settings.

Figure: Next

Clicking next to start the troubleshooter

 

  • The Power troubleshooter starts detecting issues.

Figure: Detecting issues progress bar

  • When the detection process is complete, a recommended resolution displays.

    You can select Apply this fix to apply the recommended fix, or select Skip this fix to continue troubleshooting without applying the fix.

    Make your choice and follow the on-screen instructions.
