add EWF shutdown and commit button to your xp start menu

[bitflusher]

I absolutely love EWF and use autohotkey v0.6 to monitor usage but i don't like to first select commit and then shutdown using the start menu. so i searched a little and found a way to add a button to the xp start menu.

i edited some registry files i found elswhere and created a script... the result is a "commit shutdown" in my start menu. now i am sharing it with you.

good luck and tell me what you think.

I think it is handier to have one on the desktop or in the Quick Launch bar.
+ It is easier to do - no registry editing.

Simpy, create a shortcut to

shutdown -s -t 00

, name it whatever you want, right click it, change icon, choose the shut down icon and done!

that option doens't commit
but you can also shortcut to the batch in your quicklaunch. i liked it this way and am just sharing it
