Hi IrBlueSky

When you access Command Prompt form the WinRE, you are not actually inside Windows, so Shutdown.exe process cannot be called from inside Command Prompt . . .

When you are accessing Command Prompt from the WinRE, you should be able to just close the Command Prompt window, and then select Reboot . . .
