I was able to get Shutdown pinned by creating a shortcut on the desktop, setting the target as:
C:\Windows\System32\shutdown.exe -s -t 5 -c "Machine is shutting down..."
then choosing an icon. After that was done I moved the shortcut to:
C:\Users\(user name)\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs
and it showed up no problem.
I can't however get reboot to work in the same manner. I think I have the wrong target, I have it set to:
C:\Windows\System32\shutdown.exe -r -t 00 "Machine is rebooting...."
It does not appear on my start screen like shutdown did.Does anyone see were I am wrong in the target? Or offer a better way to do it? Thanks
