  1. Shutdown shortcut can't use F4


    I want to know if it's possible to make a 2 key shortcut like Alt F4 to shutdown the computer.

    I can't use Alt F4 as the F4 key is mapped to screen share so if I dont want to use the mouse I end pressing winduws key plus x then tab down to sign out and shut down which seems a bit long winded.

    TIA Bart

    :)

    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.

    Shutdown shortcut can't use F4

    on a restart Fall Creators Update reopens apps from before


    The desktop shortcut works well.

    I modified it with the /hybrid switch, as this enabled fastboot to work as well.

    shutdown.exe /s /hybrid /t 0
