The -s switch shuts down the local computer, so forget that switch.

-m [\\ComputerName] ComputerName specifies, by name, the remote computer
that you want to shut down.

-f Forces running applications to close.

shutdown -f -m \\ComputerName

With no -t switch, the machine will shut down immediately.

Open a command prompt, type: shutdown /? and hit Enter.

Hi

You'd better try to open Start\RUN\ and write the next command:
shutdown /m \\computer -s

It worked for me.

Please tell me if it worked for you.

Regards
