How to reboot or switch off Genymotion device?

I'm following a guide of installing Google Play in a Genymotion VM. The guide says to run adb reboot. How do I do that?

A comment to the guide asked the same question and someone replied to that: adb connect 192.168.56.101 followed by adb -e reboot . But entering the first command gives me error:

adb server is out of date.  killing...
cannot bind 'tcp:5037'
ADB server didn't ACK
* failed to start daemon *
error: 

Long pressing power button on the emulator, brings up option inside Android to turn off the device but when I try to turn off the device this way (through Android), the emulator hangs on "Shutting down..." and doesn't turn off the device.

Linux Mint 17 ; Genymotion 2.3.1 ; Android 4.4.4

Why is my Genymotion not working?

You are trying to run Genymotion Desktop in a virtual machine, a server or a Windows Cloud instance (AWS, GCP, Azure, ...) Genymotion Desktop has been designed to run in a physical environment. For this reason, Genymotion Desktop will not work if run in a virtual machine, a server nor a Cloud instance.

Just go to your Genymotion Installation directory:

For my PC: C:\Program Files\Genymobile\Genymotion\tools

Open command prompt and navigate to this directory:

(cd C:\Program Files\Genymobile\Genymotion\tools)

C:\Program Files\Genymobile\Genymotion\tools>

and type command:

adb reboot
