2. Shutdown from desktop (more info)

Create a shortcut on your desktop. Right click > New > Shortcut. In the box, enter this: SHUTDOWN -s -t 01 and

click Next. In the next prompt, enter the name for the new shorcut (eg: Shutdown PC).

Optional #1: Right click on the shortcut and choose icon for it.

Optional #2: Drag the shorcut to your Quick Launch for faster approch.

Instead of 01 (in red above).. just type 0 and the shutdown will be still faster!

^^its also better to put the argument -f so that the whole command reads:

shutdown -s -f -t 00

For me the fastest way to shutdown my machine is just pressing the "Power" button of my CPU cabinet once.

Same here, I really don't know the "advantage" of other methods.

If your cabinet is ATX, just press the power button. Simple .

Note: If this does not work:
1) Open Power Options from Control Panel
2) Choose the Advanced Tab
3) Choose "Shut down" as the default action for "When I press the power button on my computer" and click "OK"
