Hi,

i would like to create an icon (script, bat-file,...) on
the desktop to temporarily turn off/on the screensaver.
is that possible at all?

can i create an icon to shut down the computer and for a
new-start etc.?

happy 2004 :-)

Hi

Search for .SCR files in the %systemroot%\system32 folder, right click on any one and select Send To>Desktop (create shortcut).
 
For screen saver: right click desktop, properties, screen saver tab, set to
none.

For shutdown and restart shortcuts, create a new shortcut and point it here:
shutdown = %windir%\System32\SHUTDOWN.exe -s -t 05
restart = %windir%\System32\SHUTDOWN.exe -r -t 05
log off = %windir%\System32\SHUTDOWN.exe /l
lockdown = %windir%\System32\rundll32.exe user32.dll,LockWorkStation
