Forums Scripts & Popups Is there any possible way to shutdown windows?

I'm just curious if there is any possible way to shutdown windows using mIRC.

yea that's cool and all, but is there some file in windows that controls the shutdown mechanism, cus I wanna tell mirc to run that and shutdown windows

well if you just use this dll all you gotta run is this::
//echo -a $dll(winsd.dll,ShutDown,.)

i dont think there is a "file" you can just run...

Look at this page Here from Tech TV which tells you how to use windows to shutdown without going through the startmenu. HTH

You could try this.
//run C:\WINDOWS\System32\logoff.exe


Or create a batch file, and use the following commands,
"@echo off
C:\WINDOWS\System32\logoff.exe
exit"

you are correct sir/madam, you could use something like this in your mirc to LOGOFF:

/run c:\windows\system32\logoff.exe

BUT if ya wanna shutdown, like the original poster wants, then ya have to use something like:

/run c:\windows\system32\shutdown.exe -s -t 01
the -s tells the computer to shutdown, the -t sets the timeout in seconds to 01

that is if he has an XP system, if he has a windows 95,98,ME, then he needs to use:
/run C:\windows\rundll.exe user.exe,exitwindows

Well done Keeker, I forgot about that detail.
and I am 16 m UK, so yes I am a Sir..

Damn, keeker whoeveryou're like 00ber l337. Thx for the info and the site. It works now.

That'll work on some systems, but not all. On this PC, my Windows folder is on the D drive, not the C. And for WinNT the default is C:\winnt not C:\windows.
