Shutdown Message after installation.

Installed 14.3 on HP Prodesk all seemed to well and functioning as a desktop PC. Then I get this when running shutdown now. I have never come across this before, so not sure how best to proceed?
Anyone had this and know the preferred course to cleanly achieve actual power down, please. 🤔

You did a shutdown(8) without any options, so it dropped to single user mode.

Code:
       When run	without	options, the shutdown utility will  place  the	system
       into single user	mode at	the time specified.

shutdown -h now will shutdown and show a message you can power off the machine.
shutdown -p now will shutdown and power off the machine.
shutdown -r now will shutdown and reboot.

Thank you and my apologies, I was trying to do many things at once and should have stopped and taken a breath. Also, thanks for moving me to the right forum.
