I remember one time that windows didn't want to give an option to shutdown without rebooting for updates. That was the solution.

Or a not so forceful solution: Go into the Ctrl + Alt + Del menu, and press the power button while holding down Ctrl. Now you can do an emergency shutdown.

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

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.
