How to shutdown computer at “Set Up Windows” after fresh factory re-install

I have performed a factory restore of a Packard Bell laptop (Easynote TJ68 - Windows 7 x64 Home Premium) using the D2D (Disc-to-Disc) recovery through the Packard Bell Recovery Manager application pre-installed on the laptop.



I would like the new owner to be able to run through the initial "Set Up Windows" wizard (similar to picture below) where they select their language, enter a computer name and create a new user but there is no option to shut the computer down at this process.



How can I shutdown the laptop at this stage that won't cause Windows to complain at the next boot?

          This should be the same steps for any laptop where the "Set Up Windows" wizard is displayed:




          1. At the "Set Up Windows" wizard screen press Shift + F10

          2. When the Command Prompt window opens type shutdown /s /t 1 and press Return

          3. After approximately 10-20 seconds the laptop will shutdown

          4. Done!


          Note: I have tested this and the next reboot I am greeted with the "Set Up Windows" screen.



          Edit: added /t 1 to command line to force time to shutdown from Windows default ~20 seconds to 1 second, thank to Miles Wolbe.

          • You can speed up the process considerably by adding /t 1 to the shutdown command (time=1 second).
