Title: Shutdown command for windows me
Post by: JXY on August 20, 2007, 11:34:41 PM

I was just wondering the other day, if there's a shutdown code for windows me.
I've tried the usual ' shutdown -m **** -t "**" -c "*************" -s etc '
but it doesn't seem to work for windows me.
Plus, it only has ms-dos, no cmd.
Anyone think they know the answer?

you will have to check the documentatoin of shutdown for the ME version. This aside, you can this vbscript too, however you should check whether ME has WSH/cscript (i think it has, but old version).

Code: [Select]

Set colOperatingSystems = GetObject("winmgmts:{(Shutdown)}").ExecQuery("Select * from Win32_OperatingSystem")
For Each objOperatingSystem in colOperatingSystems
    objOperatingSystem.Win32Shutdown(1)
Next
