It boots that fast because it never really shut down. Try disabling
Windoze 10 "fast startup" feature and time how long it takes when it
has to load everything from scratch:

**Are you suggesting that Windows 10 is, somehow, magically operating on

I only run it on mains power? AFAIK, when I switch on a laptop, which
has no battery connected, then that qualifies as a 'cold boot'.
