Additionally, you can shut down or wake on LAN a remote computer with Poweroff, great if you want to get to the home computer while you’re away for the holidays but don’t want it killing your electric bill the whole time.

I actually have a VBScript that I put together that can do this without all the hubbub of using a third-party program…

Force download of windows updates, email results

I dunno – in general, I like to try to use as many native apps as I can to perform routine system tasks. With a shutdown/restart, I just use the built-in restart tool provided by Microsoft with the installation of Windows.

However, with that being said, there are some tasks here that cannot be done natively (at least not without a modicum of scripting knowledge).

or, you can use the shutdown command in a batch file.

i use shutdown rebooot at 4 am, so that my ipod can sync. then at 4:30 it shutsdown for good.

i use the winternals programs to log in.

Oh! I missed the last line in the form image… that's a very good app.

You can not only control your own pc but others in network too (the application being installed there beforehand with Allow Remote Control Settings applied). You can even control the monitor!

I would love to do RND for what WinAPI functions are used there.
