This finds the user:

$strComputer = "." ; Change this with remote computer name
$objWMIService = ObjGet("winmgmts:\\" & $strComputer & "\root\cimv2")
$colComputer = $objWMIService.ExecQuery ("Select * from Win32_ComputerSystem")
$RET = ""
For $objComputer In $colComputer
    $RET &= $objComputer.UserName
Next
MsgBox(64, "Users logged on:", $RET)

The SHUTDOWN.EXE utility will cause remote logoff or shutdown.

That is correct. Outside of MS Terminal Server, Windows is a single user OS as far as the console logon goes. Perhaps you meant "users having a network session connected" or something like that? What, exactly, did you mean by "...any other users are logged in"?

on windows XP, I can log onto my account, then click "Start/Log Off/Switch Users" and my girlfriend can log on...when I press CTRL+ALT+Delete and goto users, it shows the people logged on (myself - active and my girlfriend - disconnected) I want the program to log off all users that say "Disconnected"...which is anyone that isnt the current user.

I think what your talking about is fast user switching which lets you have the accounts still logged in below i supplied a link to micro$osft how to disable that feature.

Yup, definitely a feature worth disabling.

On that note, it has piqued my interest. If you wanted to do this on a terminal server?

I know you can run tsadmin, and view the info.

and it can connect to the remote systems, is there a WMI call to this service?

thank you all for your interest

so, there is no way autoit can log off the users on its own?

I see what you mean. I wouldn't call that multi-user because all users except one have all their processes suspended and saved to disk/page file. But that's nit picky.

I can find WMI objects for remote shutdown and logoff, but they don't have any fields for specify a suspended and stored user.

same problem I have...when I use the shutdown command, if more than 1 user is logged on...it asks me if I wish to log off, (which stops the autoit code from executing...) even if I cannot log off the users with autoit...is there a way it can detect if more than 1 is on?

Can you change your code to just deal with that window if it comes up - like a Winwait with a timeout?

no, because when the popup comes up...all coding stops I believe, I tried making the program click "YES" and it didnt do anything...

know what...I lied...lol, I am a horrible person lol...well, horrible coder neways...I left out a line of code before which compromised it -.-'...well, suppose that'll work for now...thanks alot...muchly appreciated...ty again to all those who helped, (if you come up with a way to make it detect all users logged on, please post it

Thanks, I did not know that. (I've never scripted for a system with that feature enabled.)

I have Googled and read somethings in hopes of helping in this thread, but I've not found a solution just yet.

crap...I lied again lol

heres my coding, and this doesnt work

shutdown(1)
WinWaitActive("Windows", "Other people are logged on to this computer.")
tooltip("worked")
sleep(1000)
send("N")oÝ÷ Û^­æ¬ò.±ëaÇ(uëaz{kÉ©Ý(}ø­Â䱫­¢+Ø)]¥¹]¥ÑÑ¥Ù ÅÕ½Ðí]¥¹½ÝÌÅÕ½Ðì°ÅÕ½Ðí=Ñ¡ÈÁ½Á±É±½½¸Ñ¼Ñ¡¥Ì½µÁÕÑȸÅÕ½Ðì¤)ѽ½±Ñ¥À ÅÕ½ÐíݽɭÅÕ½Ðì¤)ͱÀ ÄÀÀÀ¤)͹ ÅÕ½Ðí8ÅÕ½Ðì

what do these do?

4 = Force

8 = Power down

...what do these do?

4 = Force

8 = Power down

Go to a CMD window and type/enter this:

shutdown /?

Edit: I think that 4 = Forces running applications to close without warning

...I'm not sure if 8 = Shutdown the computer

Change the WinWaitActive to just WinWait and add a 5 second timeout...

if that does not work, then this thread shows a way to have one script launch another script: http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=22531

You could have that child script do the shutdown while the main script waits for the window.

...or maybe just use /AutoIt3ExecuteLine to run the shutdown line...

WinWait("Windows", "Other people are logged on to this computer.", 10000)

doesnt work

[herewasplato]

WinWait("Windows", "Other people are logged on to this computer.", 10000)

doesnt work

that is 10,000 seconds

[ReaImDown]

that is 10,000 seconds

I know...plenty of time to work lol... shutdown(5) works...it skips the other users are logged on message...force + shutdown...thanks for the help guys lol...god that was a headache lol

[herewasplato]

Glad that you found your solution. A short timeout was meant to be little more than a sleep... but not quite the same.

...have fun...
