ShutDown remote desktop

here are 10 ways to get the option to Shutdown or Restart a Remote Desktop:




1. Press CTRL+ALT+END to get to the Task Manager, and then click Shutdown (apparently does not always work).



2. Press CTRL+SHIFT+ESC to get to the Task Manager.



3. Right click on the TaskBar and select the Task Manager.



4. For the Classic Start Menu, left click on Start, Settings, Windows Security to get to the Task Manager.



5. For the "new" Start Menu, left click on Start, Windows Security to get to the Task Manager.



6. Create a shortcut to the Task Manager (usually located at C:/WINDOWS/system32/taskmgr.exe) and put it on the desktop or taskbar [my own solution before I found this site]



7. Click Start, Run, type "shutdown -i" (without the quotes), click OK, to get a GUI that apparently doesn't use the Task Manager (this seems to require that Directory Services be running so as to be able to browse for the computer to shut down, or you must manually add the name of the remote computer to be shut down).



8. Click Start, Run, type "shutdown -r -t xx" (without the quotes) [xx=how many xx seconds to execute this command], click OK (I've not tried this myself).



9: Click on a blank area of the desktop or taskbar, press Alt-F4, and the standard Stand By, Turn Off, Restart dialog appears.
