I am running Noobs, it boots fine and runs fine but when I shut down the screen stays powered on, etc. What shout I tweak? I've already tried shutting down from the console, checked Hardware/software configurations, all seems fine but still wont completely power down.

  • Is it even supposed to be powered down?

  • Firstly I would avoid Noobs, try a fresh install of Raspberry Pi OS. Maybe ask on the PiTop3 forum forum.pi-top.com/c/pi-top-3

Noobs isn't really an operating system and isn't meant to be shut down. You are supposed to use it only on the first boot to choose a real OS.
