Sull Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 I like this one, the context menu when you right click My Computer This one if for Standby, I use psshutdown.exe because when hibernate is enabled you don't have the option to Standby when using this command "rundll32.exe powrprof.dll,SetSuspendState"[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}\shell\[Standby]\command]@="psshutdown.exe -d -t 0" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keithy E Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 It would be more useful if you added -f at the end for a faster "Force Shutdown" which does NOT damage your system. Here's the code example:For a reboot: shutdown -r -t 00 -fFor a shutdown: shutdown -s -f 00 -fMuch more useful IMO.Thanks....Nice info..relly likes it is there somting else u can share here with us....That's what this forum and Project-OS.org are for.... For your benefit: I really like it* something* you* share here with us?*Thanks~ Keithy E Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
