UCSI based USB Type-C systems may see a shutdown delay if connect changes race with power transition

This post has been republished via RSS; it originally appeared at: Microsoft USB Blog articles.

My system takes a long time to power down if a USB Type-C device, dock, or charger is plugged in or unplugged during the power transition.

 

A bug in the USB Type-C Connector System Software Interface (UCSI) software implementation in Windows 10, version 1809 can cause a 60 second delay in the system sleep or shutdown process if the power-down happens while the UCSI software is busy handling a new connect or disconnect event on a USB Type-C port. Apart from the extra one minute the sleep or shutdown process takes in this circumstance, this bug does not affect normal functionality of USB Type-C on your machine. The system and the USB Type-C ports should continue to function properly after the next wake or restart of the system.
