This tutorial will show you how to create a Shutdown utility.

Click on Project next to Create:

Click on Windows Form Application, and name the project "Shutdown Utility " and then click Ok.

Change the form name to whatever you want.

Set the maximize box and minimize box property to “false”. Change formborderstyle to FixedSingle.

Add 3 Groupboxes and 3 buttons to the form.

Rename the ff:

GroupBox1 = Shutdown Groupbox2 = Restart Groupbox3 = Log Off

Button1 = Click here to Shut Down Button2= Click here to restart Button3=Click here to Log Off.

Now to add the code:

Double click on “Click here to shut down” button. Enter the code

Code: Select all

Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click

 

        Shell("shutdown -s")

 

    End Sub

Double Click on “Click here to Restart” button. Enter the code.

Code: Select all

Private Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click

 

        Shell("shutdown -r")

 

    End Sub

Double Click on “Click here to logoff button”. Enter the code:

Code: Select all

Private Sub Button3_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button3.Click

 

        Shell("shutdown -l")

 

    End Sub

Debug and test it. It should work.
