Here i am back to help you out.You might want to have shortcuts on the Desktop for shutdown, hibernation, etc. This is as easy as the previous trick, follow the steps below.
Right-click on the Desktop
New ->Shortcut.
Then in the Type the location of the item: box, enter “shutdown.exe -s -t 00″, where “00″ is the delay in seconds. (You can increase it.)
You will then be asked to select a name (call it “Shutdown”, for example). After creating the shortcut, you can change the icon assigned to it by right- clicking on the shortcut and selecting Properties.
The window that comes up next has a “Change Icon” option, which is easy to use.
For a Restart shortcut, use “shutdown.exe -r -t 00″.
Replacing -r by -l gives the code for logging off: “shutdown.exe -l -t 00″.
Fast user switching is also possible; the code for that is “Rundll32.exe User32.dll, LockWorkStation”.
Similarly one can also make a shortcut for Standby/Hibernation. If Hibernation is enabled, the computer will hibernate, else it will go into Standby. For this, use “%windir%\system32\ rundll32.exe PowrProf.dll, SetSuspendState”.
