Shutdown windows 8 in single click
Microsoft made windows 8 more like a tablet OS,most of the options are hard to find when compare to the earlier versions.one of them is shutting down the pc,it was very easy with start menu and couple of clicks.Now they removed start menu and introduced start screen.I wonder why the didnt incude a shortcut to shutdown in the start screen ,it would be more convenient .The correct way is to shutdown is using the charms menu(win+i) >power>shutdown
but its not that fast like in the old days and confusing to new users.the old school ALT+F4 still functional but i prefer this simple way and can shutdown pc with single click from star screen
Step 1:Right click on desktop >new>shortcut
Step 2: type shutdown /s /t 0
(more clearly shutdown(space)/s(space)/t(space)zero)
Step 4: Click Next continue .Rename the shutdown.exe if you want click finish
You can see the shortcut on desktop .If you want to change icon right click on it >properties>change icon andbrowse the .Ico file
The highlighted one is the default icon of shutdown shortcut |
shutdown Shortcut pinned to start |
