restart my computer

[Guest]

Hi,

is there any easy way to restart my computer... I have XP installed on my
machin.
I have tried this code but it is not working, I am getting an exception
every time it runs.


ManagementClass W32_OS = new ManagementClass("Win32_OperatingSystem");
ManagementBaseObject inParams, outParams;
int result;
W32_OS.Scope.Options.EnablePrivileges = true;

foreach(ManagementObject obj in W32_OS.GetInstances())

{

inParams = obj.GetMethodParameters("Win32Shutdown");
inParams["Flags"] =ShutDown.ForcedReboot;
inParams["Reserved"] = 0;
outParams = obj.InvokeMethod("Win32Shutdown", inParams,null);
result = Convert.ToInt32(outParams["returnValue"]);
}

An unhandled exception of type 'System.Management.ManagementException'
occurred in system.management.dll

Additional information: Privilege not held.


thank u

Lamis,

You have to have the SE_SHUTDOWN_NAME privledge. If you don't have it,
you can try and get it by calling AdjustTokenPrivileges through the P/Invoke
layer.

Hope this helps.

As a result of a bug in the framework version 1.X, calling this method
results in a Privilege exception.
