[help] Shortcut To Shutdown Dialogue?

When Xplore was released, there were a whole bunch of threads with numeric shortcuts to various locations on an XP system.

Is there such a shortcut to access the shutdown dialogue?

I don't know, but you can use shutdown.exe (it's in your windows folder) to close your windows.

Run shutdown /? to check available options.

Example (mine):

c:\windows\system32\shutdown.exe -s -t 00 -f

-s for shutdown

-t 00 for time in seconds (you can schedule it)

-f for killing all apps without stupid warning dialogs.

Thanks for the tips for creating shortcuts, but I'm really looking for a way to get that dialogue box to pop up.
