Shutdown in RDP Session

[Abu Rashid]

Purpose: To be able to easily shutdown a PC you are connected to in an RDP (Remote Desktop) session, and also give other users logged in the ability to cancel the shutdown or save their work.

I mainly wrote this because there is no shutdown option on the start menu in an RDP session, you need to open the task manager and select turn off from the shutdown menu. So this is a shortcut, and it also has a few other features like allowing the user to cancel the shutdown (Provided by Beyondexec).

#Include <process.au3>
#include <GuiConstants.au3>

Opt("WinTitleMatchMode", 4)
Opt("GUIOnEventMode", 1) ; Change to OnEvent mode 

FileInstall("c:\shutdown.jpg", @TempDir & "\"); Files to include, you must copy these to c:\ obviously before compiling.
FileInstall("c:\turnoff.bmp", @TempDir & "\")
FileInstall("c:\reboot.bmp", @TempDir & "\")
FileInstall("c:\cancel.bmp", @TempDir & "\")
FileInstall("c:\bexec.exe", @TempDir & "\")

$mainwindow = GuiCreate("Remote Shutdown", 314, 200, @DesktopWidth / 2 - 157, @DesktopHeight / 2 - 100, $WS_POPUP); Create GUI
GuiSetIcon("shell32.dll", 27)
GUISetOnEvent($GUI_EVENT_CLOSE, "CLOSEClicked")

GUICtrlCreatePic(@TempDir & "\shutdown.jpg", 0, 0, 314, 200); Use Picture of Windows Shutdown Dialog
GUICtrlSetState(-1, $GUI_DISABLE)

$button1 = GUICtrlCreateButton ("", 141,81,33,33,$BS_BITMAP,); Replace buttons we need to use with our own
GUICtrlSetImage(-1, @TempDir & "\turnoff.bmp")
GUICtrlSetOnEvent(-1, "button1")

$button2 = GUICtrlCreateButton ("", 226,81,33,33,$BS_BITMAP)
GUICtrlSetImage(-1, @TempDir & "\reboot.bmp")
GUICtrlSetOnEvent(-1, "button2")

$button3 = GUICtrlCreateButton ("", 243,168,61,21,$BS_BITMAP)
GUICtrlSetImage(-1, @TempDir & "\cancel.bmp")
GUICtrlSetOnEvent(-1, "CLOSEClicked")

GUISwitch($mainwindow)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

While 1

I just use Start-->Run-->"shutdown -r -f -t 10"

As stated the point of the script is to save clicks.

And why even bother going to start->run

Just press windws-key + r.

Also the ability to warn others users logged in is one of the main features here, not just getting the PC shut down.

It restarts the computer after a 10 second delay.
