How To Easily Restart Windows XP
by PranaY [email protected]
You can restart a Windows XP Pro and Home
machine easily by creating a shortcut with
following path. (Assume you installed Windows
XP on your C: Partition) "c:\windows\system32\shutdown.exe
-r -f -t 00" -r is for restarting the
computer. -f is to force close all programs
without saving. -t 00 is used to restart
in zero seconds. i.e. as soon as you D.Click
on the shortcut. You can log off from a Windows
XP Professional or Home edition by running
"C:\windows\system32\shutdown.exe -l
-f -t 00". Also you can shutdown a Windows
XP Home or Professional edition by running
"c:\windows\system32\shutdown.exe -s
-f -t 00". You always have to turn from
the CPU after running this command. (Same
with AT and ATX powered machines.) If you
want to turn down power of ATX machine automatically,
run "c:\windows\system32\tsshutdn.exe
00 /POWERDOWN /DELAY:00" This is used
to turn off a server. Even though your computer
will be
shutdown completely, this whole operation
will take 30 seconds to finish. Even though
you don't have networked computers attached
to your computer, this works.
