Create Desktop Icon for One Click Window XP Shutdown

December 1st, 2006
ADVERTISEMENTS

If you wish to shutdown your windows XP loaded computer, you need to press start > Turn Off Computer > Turn Off. This 3 step process can easily be replaced by a desktop shortcut icon which shuts down your computer in one click.

Instructables has a nice tutorial to create shortcuts on your desktop to shutdown, restart, logoff and hibernate your computer and you do not need to be a computer expert to get it working.

You basically need to create a desktop pointing to “shutdown -s -t 0” (copy and paste exactly without quotes) and you are done. Change the icon to the power button for added effect.

Reminds me of Brutus that can Lock, Log Off, Restart, Shut Down Windows in One Click.
