The method below requires Windows PowerShell.

The following commands must be run in Windows PowerShell as a local administrator. Using the method below is only recommended if the VM is not responding to a shutdown command from Hyper-V Manager or using the PowerShell Stop-VM -Force command. Force a Hyper-V virtual machine to shut down by killing its process

Using the GUID, you can find the VM’s CPU process ID and kill it. The most important thing you need if you want to force an unresponsive VM to shut down, is the VM’s GUID. But that’s something of a sledgehammer solution. One way is to shut down your server (or PC if you are using client Hyper-V).

In this situation, you need to be more creative about shutting down the VM.

Even the PowerShell Stop-VM -Force command doesn’t help. And you end up with a VM in Hyper-V Manager with a status of ‘Shutting down’ that no longer responds, and it can’t be forced to shut down using the normal controls. It doesn’t happen that often but sometimes Hyper-V virtual machines (VM) hang when you are trying to shut them down.
