Hi,

There doesn't seem to be an option to schedule a task to
run on system shutdown. Why not?

Thanks, Jamie

You can do this with a trick by using the SHUTDOWN command. Type
SHUTDOWN /?
at a DOS prompt for details about the command-line options. Then write
a batch file with the desired commands and put SHUTDOWN into the last
line of the file.
