command line - How do I shutdown - restart - logoff Windows via a bat file? -

i've been using remote desktop connection workstation, i'm not able use shutdown/restart function in start menu while doing this.

i've put few helpful options in answer below.

note: wanted make sure answers mentioned along own on this.

and here in no particular order.

• force shutdown josephstyons
• executing dll file vonc
• run run box dean
• remote shutdown kip

here's how shutdown functions via batch file:

• shutdown -r — restarts
• shutdown -s — shutsdown
• shutdown -l — logoff
• shutdown -t xx — xx number of seconds wait till shutdown/restart/logoff
• shutdown -i — gives dialog box fill in function want use
• shutdown -a — aborts previous shutdown command....very handy!
• shutdown -h — hibernate. easy mistake - it's not help
• shutdown -y — removes prompts @ shutdown (help not available in documentation)

additional options:

• -f — force selected action
• -t <seconds> — set time shutdown. use -t 0 "now"
