This is very common for the FC release.
I always disable fast start up for a multitude of reasons. Mostly because I want a clean fresh boot and not reloaded problems. Fast start up is hibernation by another name, even uses the same file, hiberfil.sys, to write the kernel as currently resident in the ram as well as loaded drivers then simply reloads them on the next boot.
Something else the the FC edition is doing is prompting a UAC request for some start up items. tenforums has already posted a work around for that for both shutdowns and restarts by adding context to the desktop right click menu that give a few more options over the alt-F4 method.
Overall, crappy call that was not well thought out on the M$ deveopment team. What they were trying to accomplish was just to reload whatever was already up upon restart or shut down and start up by close replication of hibernation or sleep. In the end this time saving feature is taking more time.

You can adjust how long your computer waits before sleeping or hibernating—or prevent it from turning itself off altogether. But be careful. On a battery powered laptop, inhibiting sleep or hibernation can result in data loss if the battery dies.
Thats when you set it to shut down at 5-10% battery life.
Sleep and hibernation are things of the past. If you have a decent machine with an SSD its not any faster than a regular boot or if so onuy a few seconds different. Not worth the 16-128GB writes on every cycle.
