Any chrome browser will do.
- Log into the My Cloud dashboard.
- Go to the “Settings” Page.
- Select “Utilities” on the left panel.
As you can see there is a “reboot” button but no “shutdown” button.
The “shutdown” is actually hidden from you, but you can still manually call shutdown with some javascript code!
This is what typing “javascript:dev_shutdown();” in the search bar does. It’s effectively the same as clicking the hidden “shutdown” button (trust me on this).
Note: “javascript:dev_shutdown();” will only work once you access this page!
You can even save this piece of code as you would a bookmark! So you don’t have to type it in every-time.
Also by the “light does out”, I mean the device power light goes off as a visual confirmation.
If you look at the Logs afterwards, an entry also confirms the device has shut itself down.
Problem solved, high fives all around.
