For a Windows computer, you can abort the shutdown by opening a command prompt and type the following command: shutdown /a That will abort the shutdown. However, keep in mind that once you’ve initiated a shutdown from the Start Menu, there’s generally zero time to abort. If someone initiated the shutdown to the PC remotely, then you’ll have some time to abort.
