    Not really. If -f (force) is removed windows will shutdown similar to pressing the shutdown button and will wait for your input regarding open programs. -f is needed to just just “do it” with no hesitation or response from the user.

      Straight from the doc

      /t <xxx> Sets the time-out period before shutdown to xxx seconds. The valid range is 0-315360000 (10 years), with a default of 30. If the timeout period is greater than 0, the /f parameter is implied.

        Sooo when you use the prompt

        Shutdown.exe -r -t 00

        You would need the -f since we defined the timeout period as 0. Because:

        If the timeout period is greater than 0, the /f parameter is implied.
