if you are like me who are lazy and never let their machine shutdown, you might have encountered this message saying that your shutdown will get restart in next X minutes and there is no way you can postpone the restart this time. Unfortunately, this happened to me while I was doing some critical work for my project and a restart would have put 5-6 hours behind the schedule. Initially, I accepted this as my fate, cribbing about how this will impact my schedule and timelines and ultimately wasted couple of minutes.
With only 60seconds left, I thought let's try killing this process, tried various options like shutdown /a shutdown /s, tried finding process using task manager and few more options that were on top of my head but nothing worked. Then I went to google guru for the command to stop it and this time the clock was showing only 25seconds. Luckily, I was able to find the command at 15seconds and I was able to execute it with only 5 seconds left with first two attempts failed due to my fat fingers.
Here is the command:
taskkill /im SMSCliUI.exe /f
Note: This command is case-sensitive.
Google Saved the day for me.
