Shutdown works by sending a acpi (power off) cmd to the VM, if the VM is not 
configured to respond to this, then nothing will happen. Can be tricky with 
Windows VM’s as the various windows versions do it differently, plus it matters 
if someone is logged on to them, also domain/policy settings 😊

Even so, it never seems to be a 100% effective.

qm shutdown <vmid>
It does not work the same eror  

"TASK ERROR: VM quit / powerdown failed - got timeout"
 only thing that works is

qm stop <vmid>

Hi there,

You can try running from the host

qm shutdown <vmid>
qm stop <vmid>

qm list 
gives you the VMIDs
