Tails shut off sequence

When tails shuts down I get the standard shutdown message but it freezes on this screen with the the squares finishing it's sequence.I always have to hold my power button down to get my computer to shut off completely at this point. Is my tails corrupt or is this an operating issue? I used Windows to make the the usb.

if it still is not shut down after several minutes, you will have to shut it down by holding the power button. it is not the end of the world since it only does not wipe the ram properly and might corrupt the tails installation. but you can counter that by making a backup of your tails usb stick https://www.reddit.com/r/DarkNetMarketsNoobs/wiki/bible/buyer/tails/backup [strongly recommended]. the failing to wipe the ram is not an issue since you are just a buyer.

Please post such questions on /r/DarkNetMarketsNoobs next time.

I am also having this problem

I noticed this only happens on my MacBook Air and not my home-built pc.

That's nothing. Tails just doesn't have the right ACPI commands for your hardware.

In some cases, the firmware for controlling the system is proprietary and will never be included in tails.
