Lenovo ThinkPad X390 Yoga Won't Power Down After Shut Down

After upgrading to Windows 11, my Lenovo ThinkPad X390 Yoga won't completely power down after shutting down. The power button remains lit. And the ThinkPad light on the lid cover stays on. I have to hold the power button down for 10 seconds to completely power down the computer. It's a real chore.

Luckily, I found a work-around for it. If I call "C:\WINDOWS\system32\shutdown.exe -s" from the Windows Command Prompt, then the computer will shut down after a minute and it will power down completely.

To make the process easier, I downloaded the Shutdown short cut (Shutdown.lnk) in the "Shutdown through remote desktop?" article on this site. I put that shortcut on the desktop, so that now I can just double-click on the Shutdown shortcut to completely power down the laptop.
