A user would like to have the Shutdown, Restart and
Hibernate buttons displayed instead of the menu that
selects the option you would like to do. How do I get the
buttons to display? We are on a network domain here so
I'm not sure if it is an enforced policy.

Thanks.

Hi

Have a word with your Administrator to see if it is possible.

One way to get the equivalant done or icons to represent each of those
buttons and more options is to use one of Karen Kenworthy's excellent power
tools called *Karen's Show Stopper* which allows you to create shortcut
icons for each of these functions including Shutdown, Power Off,
Restart/Reboot, Logoff Current Users, Suspend (Leave Power On), Hibernate
(Power Off), Force (Don't Wait for Other Programs to End). You can *save
shortcut icons for any of these options*:

Also a nice list of shutdown options was posted here on March 11, 2004 by
MVP Torjier Bakken:

Create a shortcut to the file %windir%\system32\shutdown.exe and add
the following parameters:

-s -t 0

Note that shutdown.exe often has a bad habit of ending up in "It is now safe
to turn of your computer" message when you do a shutdown.

Some other solutions (free) that does not have this problem:

A)
You can use a vbscript to do a shutdown:

B)
PsShutdown.exe in the free PsTools suite

C)
Wizmo.exe
