NoteThe earlier version of the shutdown command uses a dash (-) instead of forward slash (/) for its options. Shutdown -r -c 'Rebooting for latest updates.' This command would display a Windows system shutdown window for 30 seconds. This window would warn the user that the computer is going to shut down and then restart the computer. Shutdown -iRan from either the command line or from the Windows run line, this option would open the remote shutdown dialog window. Shutdown /hPlace the computer in mode in Windows Vista, 7, or 8.

Shutdown /lImmediately logs off the current user in Windows Vista, 7, or 8. Shutdown /s /t 60Shuts down the computer after 60 seconds. Shutdown /s /m PC123 /t 20Will shut down remote computer name 'PC123' after 20 seconds.

Shutdown /s /t 45shutdown /aThe first command initiates a computer shutdown after 45 seconds. The second command aborts the shutdown if it is executed in the shutdown timeout period, which is 45 seconds in this example.

Don't put it in a batch file or it will keep adding tasks. You might also need to use the '/interactive' switch after 'at' to get the message to display.Ah yes, that might well be what he's done. The 'at' only needs to be executed once, after that the scheduler will run the command automatically at the indicated time (which is the whole point of scheduling it.). If you run the 'at' a second time then you'll get two copies of the shutdown command running, and the second one will probably fail because the first one is in the middle of shutting the system down. Hello.i hava batch file that shutdowns my windows 7 pc at certain time everyday.

Can someone please helpI( don't like windows scheduler so I too had to find a solution. I came across a freeware application named clocx from clocx.net.

It serves 2 purposes. It nicely replaces the standard Windows clock gadget and it also has multi alarm facility to do what ever you want at predefined times on predefined days/dates. Works on XP too.Works for me.
