Aqua-Soft ForumsDoes anyone know if I can place an icon in moby dock that would either Shut Down/Restart/Standby my computer or bring up the shut down option window?
Computer Shut Down Icon In Moby Dock?
You can make a shutdown icon by dragging this file to the dock:
C:\WINDOWS\system32\shutdown.exe
But that won't bring up the shutdown menu, it would be darn cool if you could somehow make a link to that. Does anyone know a way to do it?
[Edit]
Just found a good link about this subject, it shows how to make icons for every option, but not how to link to the menu.

Download the Shutdown app from that page, then this is what I did to get a menu the best I could. Put the Shutdown.exe in your User Folder. Then create a folder (in this folder) called Shudown Links. Create shortcuts for each option from the app, then drag your Shutdown Links folder to the dock. Use the alternate click to get a folder listing and you have all list of your options.
It still would be better to link to the menu, if someone knows how inform us! Thx.
The program you need to bring up the menu is closewin.exe. You can download it (and some other apps) from this website
