Windows + r, shutdown -s -t 0, enter

[–] [email protected] 8 points 11 months ago

I use "shutdown -s -f -t 0" it forces all apps to shutdown without windows asking you if you want to go back and save or if a program is not turning off.

even the shutdown command is complicated ffs

Be happy the shutdown procedure doesn't start by opening regedit. I wouldn't be surprised, to be honest.

I read that as rageedit.

Not really

The -s stands for shutdown, with other ones being for hibernate, reboot etc.

The -t stands for time. By default it's something like 30 seconds. Putting it on 0 makes it instant.

It only takes two parameters to shutdown, how is that complicated?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

Not really, it's a pretty simple command that not everyone uses anyway. -s is for shutdown, -t for time. There are more complicated things in the Windows command line interface.

I think it would still update (if it didn't give a normal shutdown option)

Nope, I use it all the time if I'm going home from work. Works like a charm.
