Shutdown ignoring any prompts - ben - 11-06-2015

Hi, I want to configure the shutdown to shutdown without any interaction. For example I have 2 virtual machines running and when I press the power button I get a message asking if I want to close the virtual machine. I want Linux Lite to ignore these windows and shut down. Is there a way of re-configuring the shutdown to be a forced shutdown.

I have found a link that may be useful but I don't recommend shutting down vm's this way as it could lead to data loss.

I agree with avj
It is like just switching off your PC with the power button, rather than doing a shut-down...
