Press **Windows key + R** to open the Run dialog box.  \n2. Type `shutdown /r /t 0 /f` and press **Enter**.  \n   - `/r` = restart  \n   - `/t 0` = wait 0 seconds (i.e. immediate)  \n   - `/f` = force apps to close (without asking)  \n   This will trigger an immediate restart. ([learn.microsoft.com](https://learn.microsoft.com/lv-lv/windows-server/administration/windows-commands/shutdown?utm_source=openai))\n\n---\n\n## Method 2: Use Windows + X menu\n\n1. Press **Windows key + X**.  \n2. Press **U**, then **R** (this sequence opens the \u201cShut down or sign out\u201d options, then \u201cRestart\u201d).  \n   This gives you a restart without delay.\n\n---\n\n## Method 3: Alt + F4 on Desktop\n\n1. Make sure you're on the Desktop. You can press **Windows key + D** to go to the Desktop.  \n2. Press **Alt + F4**. The \u201cShut Down Windows\u201d dialog opens.  \n3. Use the arrow keys to select \u201cRestart\u201d and press **Enter**. ([windowsreport.com](https://windowsreport.com/restart-laptop-with-keyboard-windows-11/?utm_source=openai))\n\n---\n\n## Method 4: Ctrl + Alt + Delete\n\n1. Press **Ctrl + Alt + Delete**.  \n2. Use tab and arrow keys to move to the **Power** button/icon (usually bottom right).  \n3. Open it and choose \u201cRestart\u201d. Press **Enter**.  \n\n---\n\n## Method 5: PowerShell (optional)\n\nIf you can open PowerShell (for example via Windows + X \u2192 \u2026), then type:\n\n```\nRestart-Computer -Force\n```\n\nPress **Enter**. That forces an immediate restart. ([learn.microsoft.com](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/microsoft.powershell.management/restart-computer?source=recommendations&view=powershell-7.4&utm_source=openai))\n\n---\n\nIf you tell me which version of Windows you\u2019re using (10, 11, etc.), I can give more precise directions."
