Yeah, you're both right and wrong at the same time. I missed an argument.

shutdown -s -f -t 0

Not /, it's -

I never suggested I was running Windows 11, this is for Windows XP. I just double and triple checked, it's not /, it's -

Thank you. That just means I have more experience than you.

If I need to figure out floppy drives I'll ask

Thanks. I happen to have arranged Windows 3.11 to be live bootable from a single floppy disk. I call it WinFlop. Various versions of it actually, including a build with a taskbar and start menu.

I also made a companion disk, Diagnostic Utilities, that includes not only basic diagnostic utilities, but also CD, USB, and NTFS drivers.

I'll be around all week. I'd share a link, but not much point right now, the Internet Archive is still apparently down โ˜น๏ธ
