"you shut down your computer because of problem"

I upgraded to Monterey about a week ago. Every time I shut down my mac air 2015 and restart it again I get the message "You shut down your computer because of a problem". I had no problems. I just shut it down normally. Why do I keep getting this message?

MacBook Air 11″, macOS 12.0

In order to get rid of this message, we will delete a log file using Finder.

Open Finder on your Mac. Use Command-Space Bar to open Spotlight, then type Finder.
From the menu bar at the top, click on Go, then select Go to Folder.
Type “/Library” and hit Return.
Find and double-click on the Logs folder to open it.
Double-click on DiagnosticReports.
Go to the search (magnifying glass, top-right corner of the window) and type “sleep”.
From the results, look for a recent file named Sleep Wake Failure…
Right-click (Control-click) on the file, then select Move to Trash.
Shutdown your Mac (Apple  menu > Shutdown).
Wait 30 seconds, then press the power button to turn on your Mac. The message should not appear anymore when you log in.
