Explanation
The Windows shutdown command accepts several switches that control its behavior: /r initiates a full shutdown followed by a restart (reboot); /s performs a full shutdown (powers off); /f forces running applications to close without warning; /i displays the Remote Shutdown Dialog (a graphical interface). To restart a computer from the command line, the correct command is shutdown /r. Often combined as shutdown /r /t 0 to restart immediately with no delay.
