    Shutdown/Restart Shortcuts


    Hello Microsoft Community,

    I had seen online that you could add shortcuts to your desktop to quickly shut down or restart your PC. How can I do this but add a time interval (30 seconds, for example) before the computer shuts down or restarts? And is it possible to create a shortcut with the "shutdown -a" command in case I accidentally press the shut down or restart button?


    Any help will be appreciated.


    Thanks.

    :)

    ShutDown button in desktop (Win-10)

    Hi Marcel,

    Thank you for your interest in Windows 10.

    You can create shortcut for Shutdown, restart and sleep by following the below steps:

    • First right-click on the desktop, choose New and then Shortcut.
    • In the shortcut location box, you’ll need to enter the correct command, which I’ve listed for you below.
    • For Shutdown type the below command:
    Shutdown.exe -s -t 00

    • For Restart type the below command:
    Shutdown.exe -r -t 00

    • For Sleep type the below command:
    rundll32.exe powrprof.dll,SetSuspendState 0,1,0

    After you click Finish, you should now have a new icon that you can double-click to immediately shutdown, restart, or lock your computer.

    Hope this information helps, for further assistance please reply.
