Create desktop icons for Shutdown or Restart
Tool: Create Shortcut Wizard
Instead of clicking Start>Turn Off Computer and selecting Shutdown or Restart, you can create desktop icons which automatically shutdown or restart your PC with just a double-click. This tweak makes use of the Shutdown.exe command to create a new shortcut as follows:
Shutdown Icon
1. Right click on an empty area on your desktop.
2. Select New>Shortcut.
3. In the first box of the Create Shortcut Wizard, type "Shutdown -s -t 00" (without quotes). Click Next.
4. Call the shortcut something like "Shutdown PC" (without quotes) and click Finish.
5. To add the finishing touch, right click on this new icon, select Properties, click the Change Icon button and select an appropriate icon.
Reboot Icon
Follow the same steps as for the Shutdown Icon, but substitute the following steps in place of the corresponding ones above:
3. In the first box of the Create Shortcut Wizard, type "Shutdown -r -t 00" (without quotes). Click Next.
4. Call the shortcut something like "Restart PC" without quotes and click Finish.
Note that double-clicking on these icons will shutdown or restart the PC straight away without any warning. If you want a countdown before a shutdown or restart, substitute a time in seconds in place of the '00' entries in the shortcut properties above (e.g. Shutdown -s -t 10 gives 10 seconds warning before shutting down). Also note that once the shutdown or restart process begins via an icon, it can't be aborted. If you want more command line switches which can be used with the shutdown command, open a command prompt and type "shutdown" (without quotes) to see the full list of switches.
