Hi, i've just installed an OEM version of windows 10 on a computer I built for a friend, although as I don't want to enter their details how would I shutdown the computer after installing windows but before entering the details? There is no shutdown button and ctrl+alt+del doesn't work.

Hi

If you can get to the cmd prompt you can run shutdown

shutdown /s /t 005

PC manufacturers would be using MS supplied software to prepare the Windows installation so the user configures Windows at first power on.

I have not installed Windows 10 OEM so am not sure of exact details
