Thanks, Christoph-Erdman. I managed to resolve the problem by
uninstalling a Windows program that was, I think, causing the
issue by trying to access the Linux partition, so I am back in action,
but your information will certainly help avoid such issues in future.
Thanks again, Malcolm

Subject: Re: Rebooting after Windows 'restart'
Dear Malcolm,
using the
very likely You face a Windows-10 specific problem. Windows-10 attempts
to implement a quick start procedure by avoiding a full shutdown,
instead using a predefined intermediate state stored on the swap disk
(hibernation). Just try the command from the web page
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb491003.aspx
from one of the Windows-10 command line options (cmd.exe, execute
command Win-Key-Letter-R-Key, Powershell et. al.)
The -f parameter ist critical - pardon, I cannot send You the
commandline, because the virus filter thinks, that I'm sending a virus,
if I use the program name and the parameter...
Any Windows boot process will take significantly more time after that,
but the Linux boot process will succeed...
Yours sincerely
Christoph-Erdmann Pfeiler
