Intercept Shutdown on Windows Seven 64 bits

Hello,
What is your proposal for the same kind of activity with Microsoft Windows Seven 7 64 bits ?
In fact, we would like to intercept the shutdown, like we did with XP, but the event "VM_QUERYENDSESSION" is not working with W7_64.
Regards,

(I try to re-start the issue :

)

And what did that last link tell you?

 

You need to use ShutdownBlockReasonCreate and ShutdownBlockReasonDestroy from User32.dll to tell Windows not to allow shut down.

If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.

I hereby grant any person the right to use any code I post, that I am the original author of, on the autoitscript.com forums, unless I've specifically stated otherwise in the code or the thread post. If you do use my code all I ask, as a courtesy, is to make note of where you got it from.

Hello,


Is it possible to obtain an exe file that make the job, or the C++ code, that do the job ?

These are functions ?
 "ShutdownBlockReasonDestroy"
 "ShutdownBlockReasonCreate"

On my side, I have a C++ code to do the job on Windows XP.
But, one person in my team will have to re-develop a new C++ code file, to do the job on Windows Seven 64 bits, but not in a short time. (not a priority for the moment)

--

On my side too, I also write a script to run scripts at shutdown (local policy)...
But, I'm not sure to make a success...

Problems are related with the  "3"  64 bits environment :
# Registry : normal (64 bits) or wowo6432node (32 bits) and redirection
# Files : system32 (64 bits) or syswow64 (32 bits) and redirection
# 3 environments : "logon", "user desktop" and "screensaver"  (maybe more ...like "shutdown" and "start") with no "links" between them
# Run a 32 bits software in 64 bits environment.
# ...
# etc.



Regards,

kercyr,

Welcome to the AutoIt forums.

But in future please limit yourself to your own thread rather than necro-posting all over the forum in any thread close to the same subject (most of which I have now deleted).

What you did above in linking to the old threads is exactly what you should have done - so a pat on the back for that!
