Hi All,
What do yo have to do inside a Fedora 25 and Windows 7 Pro Virtual Machine
to get them to respond to virt-manager's shutdown command?
Many thanks,

I'm surprised Fedora 25 doesn't do that for you, I've used Fedora 20+
and all of them have, AFAIR, responded to that.
IIRC, you need to have a guest agent running on the guests to make this
work flawlessly. Otherwise you can use the ACPI mode, which simulates a
hardware interrupt.

I think what is happening is that I am trying to shutdown
crashed machines and, of course, it wouldn't work.
I tested healthy machines and they do shutdown.
So, oh well.
