Alt+0 doesn't shutdown

When Windows Update told me that my pc didn't meet Windows 11 system requirements because of the missing TPM, I changed the TPM device selection setting in UEFI/BIOS from discrete TPM to firmware TPM. After that change Windows Update told me that my pc did meet Windows 11 system requirements. So far so good. The change has a side effect in BootIt UEFI though: Alt+0 no longer results in a shutdown but in a reboot. Is this a known problem?

It uses APM to do the shutdown (which only takes about 128 bytes of code or so), so ensure APM stays enabled and not only ACPI (which takes something over 2K of code to do the same thing).

With "discrete TPM" selected, Alt+0 results in a proper shutdown. So maybe it's a BIOS problem. There is a newer BIOS version available, but I'm not brave enough to update it now, as I need my computer every single day.
