Solved

Hello,
I ran this command in the terminal
shutdown -r 120
so the system will restart after 120 minutes
I want to cancel this command and replace it with another one that will turn off the PC instead of restarting it
thank you for your help
Configuration: Linux Firefox 3.0.13

    And it's urgent...
    so the manual is your friend...


    shutdown -c     (c meaning cancel)

    You'll know for next time...

    See you later.

    Hello,

    man shutdown :
      -c Cancel a shutdown in progress. With this option, it is obviously not possible to provide a time argument, but you can enter an explanatory message on the command line that will be sent to all users.
    ;-)

        Hi,

        No need to apologize, at least there's no ambiguity about the order ;-)

        Good night to you ;-))

    Thank you for all your responses as I am a new Linux user and I have migrated from Windows to Linux.

    Hello,
    To access the manual of a command, just type
    man followed by the command name.
    Ex: man shutdown

    Otherwise, you can also get simplified online help for certain commands.
    Ex: shutdown --help

    Welcome to the world of Unix and its derivatives.

    You will see that once you start working with Linux, you will become addicted as the possibilities are enormous.
    The commands are much more powerful than those of M$ systems.

      Hello,

      shutdown.exe on GNU/Linux?
      To be honest, I don't think so ;-)

      Hello,
      We’re making fun right away, ...

      Well, let’s not be negative with Wine-HQ, we can do plenty of things...
      (Except this one, but with a bit of imagination)

      And maybe he has a Windows virtual machine installed on his GNU/Linux machine. :-)

      See you later.

      It wasn't meant to be mean ;-)
      Anyway, Beaujolais or not or VirtuaBox, I still haven't seen shutdown.exe on GNU/Linux ;-)))
