You can't because you have no influence on other applications. In other
words, you don't have the right to do this.

You can't - just like you don't want to allow other applications to change
the cursor of your application.

Shutdown? I mean, it's beyond a usual application's rights to change it
where you want it. The OS itself has always the possiblity to do what it
wants.

I think that maybe need to use APIs, but vb.net can do it for certain.
