You can check 'last -x' do ensure that You really send a shutdown signal. Is it dell docking station, tha new one with usb-c? It always powers on the laptop as soon I switch the power cord and sometime reboots a laptop insted of shutting it down. It is my work pc and I'm not allowed to boot Linux in any way, so I'm not sure if it's a Windows thing, or the station itself is malfunctioning. -- Łukasz Posadowski
