On a Mac of this age, I wonder if the battery is causing this strange behavior.

Next time you shut down, try the following and see if anything is different.

1.  Press VO + M, to put focus on the Menu Bar.
2.  Now press the down arrow by itself, then type “SH”.
3.  Now, hold down the Option key, and press Enter to shut down the Mac.

Hello,
   I have an older Mac running the above. I am finding it has started up even though I initiated a shutdown. I cannot find the option I need to change to prevent this behavior. Appreciate the help with this.
