Shutdown your computer in one click

by Steve Wiseman on October 1, 2007 · 0 comments

in Windows

Actually I lied. Actually a double-click. But that doesn’t sound like a good title…so there :=-

It is really simple, and this will work under Windows XP, and 2003 – not sure if it will work under Vista, but I would imagine the UAC prompt would ruin the whole experience.

Open notepad and put in the following text:

shutdown.exe -s -t 00

Shutdown Batch File Script

Save it on the desktop as “Shutdown.bat”

Shutdown Shortcut

Now if you double click on the icon “Shutdown” your system will shutdown immediately with no questions asked.
