    If you are using a Mac, go to the top left corner, click the Apple icon and then click "Shut Down." If you are using Windows, go to the bottom left corner, click the Windows icon, and depending on what version of Windows you have, either click Shut Down or click the Power icon and click Shut Down.

    What is the command that is mentioned as T10?
    Community Answer
    Community Answer
    It tells Windows to shutdown after 10 seconds. If you want to shut down immediately, change the command to -t 0. Add the -f command to force close all open applications.

    Close all open apps and folders. Once on your desktop, press Alt+F4, then press ENTER. You also may set the power button to "Shut Down PC" when pressed once; this can be done in the power button settings.

    On Windows 10, press the Windows button on your keyboard. Use the arrow keys to maneuver to the power button icon. Press "Enter". Use the arrow keys again to get to the "Sleep" option. Press "Enter", and that should do it!
