shutdown pc from dos prompt

[crackzoid]

You can shut down your pc from dos prompt like this :
type .... shutdown -s ( it'll give you 30 secs to save your work and then it'll shutdown)

for restart type shutdown -r
and for logoff type shutdown -l

for more options type shutdown only.

I tested these only on win xp ...

also press the winkey + u + u for shutdonw, winkey+u+r for restart and winkey+L+L for logoff. these don't work if the system is on a domain.

but crackzoid, that was a great tip!
