How To Make A Single Click Shutdown
Did you know that in Windows XP you can shut down your
computer from the (eventually DOS prompt) command line box?
I think you know so………………..lolzzzzzz
Moreover, you can do
this by clicking your mouse only once.
All you need to do is follow carefully, because I didn’t
have time to make screenshot of it, now follow as posted below
Right-click on an empty Desktop spot -> select New ->
Shortcut -> type shutdown followed by a space, and then enter one or more of
the parameters listed below -> click Next -> type a suggestive name for
your new shortcut -> finally, click Finish.
This is the Shutdown.exe
(located in %systemroot%\System32, usually C:\Windows\System32) syntax:
shutdown [-i|-l|-s|-r|-a]
[-f] [-m \\computername] [-t xx] [-c "Text"] [-d[u][p]:xx:yy]
Valid command line switches:
-a = Abort system shutdown in progress ONLY IF the -t xx
timeout option was already set to ANY value other than 0. ALL switches except
-l and -m are ignored during abort.
-c "Text" = Text comment (case insensitive) to be
displayed in the Message area of the System Shutdown window. MUST be enclosed
between quotes. Maximum allowed 127 ASCII characters.
-d [u][p]:xx:yy = Reason code for shutdown:
u = User code.
p = Planned shutdown code.
xx = Major reason code. Positive integer number less than
256.
yy = Minor reason code. Positive integer number less than
65536.
-f = Force running applications to close without warning.
-i = Display the shutdown interface (GUI). MUST be the first
option!
-l = Log off the current user of the local computer (default
action). Can NOT be used with the -m option unless the current user has
Sysadmin rights, in which case the -m switch takes precedence.
-m \\computername = Remote/network computer name (most
always case sensitive) to log off/restart/shut down. Current user MUST have
Sysadmin rights to be allowed to use this switch!
-s = Shut down the local computer.
-r = Shut down and restart (reboot) the local computer.
-t xx = Set shutdown timer to timeout for xx seconds. IF NOT
specified defaults to 20 seconds. Allowed values between 0 and 99 seconds. The
-a switch is the ONLY one that CAN be used during the timeout period.
NOTES:
The dash (-) in front of these switches can be replaced by a
forward slash (/).
Spaces are NOT required to separate the shutdown command
from ANY following switches, but ARE required to separate ANY switch from its
following parameter(s), if any.
For example:
shutdown -s -c "Shutting down!" -t 3
tells your computer to shutdown after waiting for 3 seconds
while the System Shutdown window will display text above in the Message area.
Optional: after you're done creating your customized
shortcut for shutdown -> right-click on it -> select Properties ->
enter your desired key "combo" in the Shortcut Key box (e.g. Ctrl +
Alt + End) -> click OK/Apply.
From now on just left-click on your shutdown shortcut or hit
that key combination to turn off/restart/log off your computer.
