Hi,
I would like to run a script at shutdown in winxp home.
I can do this in Xp professional using group policy.Since Group policy is
not supported by XP Home is there anyother way i can accomplish the same?

Thanks & Regards,
Prathibha
 
1. Create new text file and open it with a text viewer like notepad or wordpad.
2. Place this text in without quotes; "@shutdown -s"
3. Save file as nameoffile.cmd

Running this file will shutdown your computer. Place this file in the
startmenu in the startup folder for it to run automatically at login of the
user you used to place in startup. To stop this log in as a different user
and delete the file in startup. Im sure this works on all Windows OS
