Restart or Shutdown Windows (XP, 2000 and Vista) from Command Line or One-Click Shortcut

11:05 AM Posted by Laxman 1 Comments

In order to shutdown or restart the Windows with just one click shortcut or from command line, users can use shutdown command line utility/command that comes with Windows 2000 (with the Resource Kit installed) and Windows XP or Windows Vista (native). To access shutdown command, simply go to DOS command prompt by clicking on Start -> All Programs -> Accessories -> Command Prompt or Start -> Run and then type in Cmd to launch a command prompt window.

Type shutdown -s -t 01 Here "01" Means time for shutdown in no. of Seconds.

If you want brief discription for shutdown command

Type shutdown /? in command line

Can anyone recommend the best RMM program for a small IT service company like mine? Does anyone use Kaseya.com or GFI.com? How do they compare to these guys I found recently: N-able N-central help desk software
? What is your best take in cost vs performance among those three? I need a good advice please... Thanks in advance!
