One Click Shutdown

[Ricey 420]

You can shut down your computer with one click. Go to your desktop, go to new and then shortcut. Where it asks for the path type in %windir%\System32\SHUTDOWN.exe -s -t 01 . You can even change the icon to the shutdown icon by going to properties and then change icon

wouldn't that be two clicks for most people? :

hmmm, I might use that. It takes 3 clicks and a press for me. Click Start, click shutdown, click shut down again and press the power button for the monitor

not if you've got a 3-buttoned mouse.

I use my wheel button as 'double-click' - saves wear-and-tear on the mouse and my finger!

What !!!! ur kidding me U guys acualy shutdown ur comp and monitor

my comp is set to turn off monitor after 15 mins of no use and the only time i shut it down is to reboot when i add a updated driver or change a network connet or add software and such cant even remeber the last time i had to reboot for a crash as 98se is so stable now that they finaly got all the bugs out

it is a lot easer on ur comp if u use it every day to not shut it down ever time u do the component coll off them warm up again then u turn it on
the cycle of hot cold hot cold is vary bad for ur chips it is much better to just leve it on

be sides that way u can leve kazaa up and sharing files all the time

So how many processors have you fried so far??? Chips and components are obviously designed to be switched on and off as the majority of people shut down their pc every time its not in use. Besides how long are you planning to keep your current pc? if its less than 10 years or so then you don't really need to worry about shutting it down and doing damage to your chips

I also only reboot... i also have 98se, xp users have to turn there comp off indeed.. because else there ram will explode... 98se is stable as hell and doesn't suck to much ram... and about that chip fried stuff... thats real bullshit... ever heard of coolers?? dumbass

but that shit about its bad for you're chips to turn off and on because of the temperature... well... it's also bullshit....

[cooolway]

if your a xp professional, you can just close without going to start and then shutdown.

Two presses for me, the power button on my pc (shuts down xp properly) and the power button on my monitor. (actually I should also turn off the speakers, but I always forget that )
