Great Info, but I need more

[Conan Kelly]

The following posts were great information, but does
anyone know more? I assumed "l" for Logoff, and it
appears to be working. Is there one for Standby? If so,
what letter do I use, "s" is already used. Also, does
anyone know which file the Logoff, Shutdown, Restart, &
Standby icons are stored in. The default icon that shows
up is plain. I would like use the original icons.

Thanks for everyones help, the amount of knowledge on
these news groups is awesome.

Hi Ramesh,

That's the method I was looking for, thank you.

For anyone else reading this and might be interested; To
make a shortcut for
reboot, just replace the "r" with an "s".

Happy Holidays,
JAX

in message
Right-click on your desktop and select New / Shortcut.
You will see the
Create Shortcut wizard. In the field labeled Type
location of the item enter
the following command:
"Shutdown -s -t 0"

Click Next. Enter a name for the shortcut, e.g. Quick
Shutdown. Click
Finish.

I had shortcuts on my desktop for both shutdown and
restart but, I have
forgotten how to create them. It's an easy task, just a
matter of r-click
the desktop and "New>shortcut" then typing something
like"shutdown -s -t00"
but, that isn't it. Could someone remind me how it goes?

I had a file with all kinds of neat little tricks like
that but somehow, I
missed backing it up before a HD failed.

TIA, JAX

There is none for standby but you can do one to lock the desktop:
%windir%\System32\rundll32.exe user32.dll,LockWorkStation

To change the icons, right click the shortcut, properties, change icon. It
should default to this path, but if not browse here:
%SystemRoot%\system32\shell32.dll and pick new icons.
