Create Shut down shortcut on desktop

It takes time on clicking
Start >> Turn off Computer and selecting Turn off!

Follow the following few steps to create shortcut to Shutdown.

1. Right Click on Desktop and
New >> Shortcut.



2. In the Blank Box type:

shutdown -s -t 60 -c "Computer will Shutdown in 60 Seconds."


3. Click Next and name it Shutdown in the next Name option.



4. You have created a Shutdown shortcut, on clicking your computer will shutdown after 60 seconds.

5. Now right click on the Shutdown shortcut and click on Properties. Click on Change Icon and select any icon from the list.
That's all!



Note: You can change 60 to other value, its for time in seconds after which your computer will shut down. If you want that my Computer shutdown direct after clicking on Shutdown shortcut, then change 60 to 0. e.g!

shutdown -s -t 0 -c "Computer is shutting down"

Instead of
"Computer will shutdown in 60 seconds"
you can also type other message.
