shutdown exe file

peat

With XP I had an exe file which enabled a single click shutdown from my desktop, does anyone know of a similar tool for vista home basic?

Hi,

maybe this will help.

It hardly seems worth it in Vista, as it only takes two clicks anyway: (1) click Start, (2) go along the bottom of the start menu to the pull right arrow, (3) click Shutdown; it doesn't prompt for confirmation or what kind of shutdown.

I don't recall if it was default or if I needed to make a setting but my Vista desktop machine goes through a proper shutdown when I hit the power button. I've set my Vista laptop and XP netbook to hibernate on power button or when they are closed.
