Vista - Shutdown Shortcut

I know how to make a shutdown shortcut... however, I do not know how to
include a conformation that I want to shutdown... can anyone tell me how to
make a shutdown shortcut with a conformation that I really want to
shutdown...

Thanks in advance...

Jill...

Enter shutdown -s -t 0
Restart: shutdown -r -t 0
Logoff: shutdown -l -t 0
Hibernate: rundll32.exe PowrProf.dll, SetSuspendState Hibernate

Hi Jill,

You need to add a delay time to the shortcut in order to get the notification of a shutdown. See this link below for details on how.

Shutdown shortcut

Hope this helps,

Thanks... Spirit... but what about a conformation window that I really want
to shutdown and/or restart???

Thanks for the reply...

If you paste these lines into notepad and save with a .vbs extension, and
then click on it, it will give you an idea of how you can get a confirmation
prompt


JillsResponse = _
MsgBox("Hey Jill, do you really really wanna shut me down?", _
vbOKCancel, "Checking If Jill is really sure")
If JillsResponse = vbOK Then
MsgBox "Ok gonna shut down then"
Else
MsgBox "Ok I won't shut down then"
End If
