POSready 2009 Shutdown/Restart command

I am trying to set up automatic restart for a POSReady 2009 device, but so far nothing is working.
I am using this command: C:\Windows\system32\shutdown.exe -r -f
I have set it to run as current user/only when user is logged on. This user isn't Admin it has been set as limited account, is there anything I have missed?

try this:
shutdown.exe /r /f /t 0
The /t 0 (zero) will reboot the system immediately.

  • Why won't Windows Embedded POSReady 2009 (Windows XP) log off, shut down or restart?

    Hello,
    I have recently installed Microsoft's Windows Embedded POSReady 2009 or Windows XP on my Dell latitude D510.  Anytime I try to log off, shut down, or restart it says logging off with the bar going across but even after 1/2 an hour the thing still says
    that.  I tried disabling my sound card, reinstalling the driver, and the Microsoft UPH thing but still nothing.  Anytime I want to turn off my laptop I have to hold down the power button which I know is bad for it but I have no choice!  Any
    help is appreciated, Thanks in advance.
    Laptop Specs:
    Intel Pentium M 740 @ 1.73GHz
    1GB DDr2 RAM
    Windows Embedded POSReady 2009 SP3
    Dell Latitude D510

    Download and install all the Windows XP hardware drivers available from

  • Slow shutdown, restart, logout on MBP retina 10.9.3

    I have been unable to shutdown or restart my MBP mid 2012 retina (2.6 GHz Intel Core i70, other than by holding down the power button.  I've tried, I think, almost all suggestions on this forum (safe mode, restore, repair permissions reset PVRAM. etc).  I finally got it to shutdown regularly by eliminating all Divx software on my computer (no easy task), but shutdowns and restarts still hang an unusually long time, about 15 seconds.
    It was suggested I send console information just before my last BOOT_TIME to see if any process in the time after restart command and boot would give any hints.  Here are the entries, and there appear to be some problems but I cannot interpret them.  I have an external WD passport drive connected (which I can eject before restarting with no noticeable effect, and a USB hub, which I also disconnect to no effect).  Any help/suggestions would be appreciated.  I am about to give up...  I would like not to have to re-install the system software..  Thanks for any help!

    Uninstall whatever McAfee product has been installed according to its instructions. There is insufficient reason to conclude it is causing any particular behavior but McAfee "anti-virus" products serve no beneficial purpose on a Mac and can only complicate troubleshooting.
    Seagate's disk utilities are also unnecessary and have the potential to contribute to problems.
    Power or other problems related to unexpected system sleep, shutdown, lights or fans call for an SMC reset. Read all the steps.
    Before Resetting the SMC
    Try each of the following steps in this order before you reset the SMC. Test the issue after completing each troubleshooting step to determine if the issue still occurs.
    Press Command + Option + Escape to force quit any application that is not responding.
    Put your Mac to sleep by choosing the Apple () menu from the upper-left menu bar and then choosing Sleep. Wake the computer after it has gone to sleep.
    Restart your Mac by choosing the Apple () menu from the upper-left menu bar and then choosing Restart.
    Shut down your Mac by choosing the Apple () menu from the upper-left menu bar and then choosing Shut Down.
    Resetting the SMC on portables with a battery you should not remove on your own
    Shut down the computer.
    Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if it's not already connected.
    On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time. The power adapter indicator light will cycle off / on once.
    Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
    Press the power button to turn on the computer.

  • Time Machine:  When it's backing up, can't open new apps/shutdown/restart

    Running Snow Leopard. I just did a MS Office 2008 Service pack 3 upgrade. And noticed that while Time Machine is backing up, I can no longer open any new apps or shutdown/restart the macbook. Nothing responds anymore.
    Related issued: If it's been sleeping, I can't type anything to unlock my computer.
    In either situation, I have to hold down the power button to shut down and restart. Anyone else experiencing this issue?

  • MacBook Late 2008 (Unibody Aluminum) running Lion cannot shutdown, restart, or logout

    After upgrading to mac os x lion, my macbook has not been able to restart or shutdown or even logout properly. This problem was not present when the laptop was in snow leopard. Currently, I am able to do a shutdown through the terminal by using the command:
    sudo shutdown -h now
    or restart by using the command:
    sudo shutdown -r -h now
    This is fine for most situations but when I am trying to install an update or a program that needs a restart, I am unable to do so. When still at the login screen, I am able to shutdown properly leading me to think that a process is preventing shutdown but I can't find anything in the console. The power button also becomes unresponsive (normally pressing it brings up the window asking whether to shutdown, restart, etc.) and can only be used to do a forced shutdown (i.e. holding it down for 10 seconds). The sleep, restart, and shutdown functions in the apple menu also do not work.
    Any ideas anyone?

  • Restart command doesn't work

    I believe the following problem began when I updated to 10.4.9. I can't be absolutely sure but the timing seems about right. I've since updated to 10.4.10 in an effort to fix it, but haven't succeeded.
    The problem is that when I select the Restart command in the Apple menu the computer will begin the process, all open apps will be quit, the finder will quit, my desktop will go to blue to a few seconds. Then the monitor will go blank. Then nothing after that. I DO NOT get the startup chime. The machine is still powered on, the light above the power button is still lit. If I leave the machine for any length of time the fans will start speeding up gradually until they're at full tilt. After 4 or 5 minutes it becomes obvious that nothing is going to happen, so I need to manually shutdown via the power button.
    Does anyone know what logs I can post here to help in the diagnosis? This also happens if any installer application needs to perform a restart, ie Software Update.
    Thanks,
    Chris

    Hi chris catalano-
    I have had updates make my machine do some crazy stuff just as you describe. I would actually let it go for 15 or 20 minutes before declaring it a no-go.
    If that doesn't work, try resetting the SMU and see if that helps: How to reset the SMU on a Power Mac G5 (Late 2004) or Power Mac G5 (Late 2005)

  • No automount - shutdown/restart in openbox

    Hello
    I was still using hal until today when I tried to browse my usb flash disk a "failed to mount, not authorized to perform operation message appeared"
    Ok, time to remove hal I said. And I did.. I then replaced slim with lxdm, replaced the entry in innitab and rebooted.
    Now automount doesn't work at all, neither does shutdown/restart..
    Any help would be much appreciated
    xinitrc is
    exec ck-launch dbus-launch openbox-session

    The solution suggested in the link worked for me! (except this ). Also for the shutdown/restart issues this worked for me:
    For anyone else having issues, it looks like this package has been abandoned by the dev.
    First, assuming you have consolekit and dbus running correctly --
    Edit /etc/oblogout.conf
    Change usehal=true to usehal=false
    Change the shutdown and restart commands to
    shutdown = dbus-send --system --print-reply --dest="org.freedesktop.ConsoleKit" /org/freedesktop/ConsoleKit/Manager org.freedesktop.ConsoleKit.Manager.Stop
    restart = dbus-send --system --print-reply --dest="org.freedesktop.ConsoleKit" /org/freedesktop/ConsoleKit/Manager org.freedesktop.ConsoleKit.Manager.Restart
    As for suspending, I dont do it but the above command should work.
    There's absolutely no good reason to have to edit sudoers to shutdown your machine if you are in the power group. It took me 2 minutes to research the correct dbus commands to shutdown and restart, instead of throwning the commands "shutdown -h now" and "reboot" into a script.

  • *UPDATED* K8N Diamond Plus X16 Shutdown\restart delays

    First off, I'd like to take a moment to pat everybody who helps out on this forum, and that you do a wonderful service to the pc community.   
    My system specs. are below for reference.
    I have recently been experiencing shutdown\restart delays with my computer.  I'm pretty sure it started after I replace my 7900GT with a 7900GTX through an RMA.
    The issue is that now when I shutdown or restart the computer, it hangs.  Windows has shut down, the mouse shuts down, the monitor turns to low power mode, but the pc just sits there for a good 15-20 seconds in this state, then shuts off or restarts (whichever I chose it to do).  I have taken everything out and reseated, including all connections and such.  More recently I have again removed all cards, ram and psu, and vacuumed out the case, also opened the psu and cleaned that out too).  Put it all back together, and works fine still except the problem is still there.  Other then that, the computer pretty well works fine and dandy.  Play games ok (BF2, BF2142, etc...), video editing\encoding (2 or 3 at the same time), CD to MP3 ripping, and all other operations work without a hitch.  Voltage levels seem ok in the bios and through Everest Ultimate Edition 2006.  I can give specs. from these on request.  I've made sure all drivers are up to date.  Checked bios settings, reset bios settings.  Disabled any option for power savings, including wake on lan.  Problem still lingers.  Any other suggestions?   Thanks in advanced!
    L_K

    Ok, tests are in.  Since I have no idea what I'm doing with the mem timings, I set them all to auto.  4@333 = no difference.  1@400 = no difference.  I didn't see a point in trying 2 modules, as I don't see it making any difference at this point.
    I do get a reoccurring error message in the log file relating to a network card and dhcp.

  • G4 MDD/FW800: shut down and restart commands do not work

    Hey all,
    I've done some searching here and on the internet in general and haven't turned up anything useful.
    Suddenly my G4 no longer shuts down when I select "shut down" from the Apple menu. The "Restart" command also does not work.
    What happens is this: The machine goes through the normal process of quitting all apps that are open and then just hangs once there's nothing left (no menu bar, no dock) but the desktop picture. I have to touch and hold the power "button" on my ADC display to shut the machine down.
    The machine is set to start up every weekday at 7AM but does not do this any longer.
    I've run TechTool Deluxe; the Apple Hardware Diagnostic CD (that came with my G4); I've replaced the backup/clock battery; reset the PMU (by pressing the PMU button following Apple procedure). I've re-seated all 4 memory DIMMs. I took out the third-party USB 2.0 card.
    No effect.
    Coincidentally, all this happened immediately after I played Halo for the first time in over a year. My Mac worked fine. Then I decided to play Halo. After quitting Halo the Mac wouldn't shut down via the "Shut Down" command.
    Weird.
    One other note: After running the extended hardware test from the CD, the "Shut Down" button worked.
    Am I looking at an OS issue? I'm dreading having to re-install the OS. I've never had to so this on an OS X Mac. This is the FIRST time I've had any problems with this Mac-- I suppose a trouble-free 6 years is a pretty good run, but I can't easily afford a new Mac right now, no matter how much I'd like to get a new iMac.
    A few details:
    Mac OS X 10.4.11
    2GB memory
    Generic USB 2.0 card
    Additional HD on the 66MHz bus
    Thanks for any suggestions!
    -Brian

    I created a new account with admin access. The "shut down" command didn't work then, either.
    I checked out the activity monitor and syslogd was using 0.00% CPU.
    This is driving me nuts!
    I want to clarify something I mentioned earlier: When booted from the Hardware Diagnostics CD, I was able to shut the machine down by clicking on the "shut down" button on the diagnostics dialog window.
    That makes me thing that something in the current installation of the OS is messed up. (Thanks to Halo?)
    Fortunately the computer and all apps seem to run fine-- I work on this computer all day running Adobe apps. It's just the shutting down at the end of the day that's problematic. My concern is that this is symptomatic of a more serious problem.
    Perhaps reinstalling the OS is the next step?
    Thanks for your suggestions so far-- I greatly appreciate it!

  • Import of photos is not working. Moreover 'photos' app is not getting closed, it says 'closing all libraries'. Even it is stopping shutdown/restart of my mac.

    Next time you open the photos application hold down both of the keys suggested and then launch the application in the usual way. If you do this you will be presented with the opportunity to repair your library.

  • Can I download a file in different sessions or should it be in a single session? In other words can I pause the download of a file, shutdown/restart my system and then resume download from where I left off? Or will it start from the very beginning?

    Can I download a file in different sessions or should it be in a single session? In other words can I pause the download of a file, shutdown/restart my system and then resume download from where I left off? Or will it start from the very beginning?

    If a server supports resuming downloads then the download should continue where it left off.<br />
    You can test that by simple starting a large download and wait a minute or so before pausing it.<br />
    Then you can close and restart Firefox and see if resuming works.
    You can set the pref browser.download.manager.quitBehavior to 2 on the about:config page.<br />
    That will make Firefox ask for confirmation if you want to cancel the download if you close Firefox.

  • How to disable GNOME logout/shutdown/restart beep???

    Hello, when I logout/shutdown/restart and the volume is not mute, I hear a large beep sound which annoys me very much. I tried to untick alart sound in System->Preference->Sound, but it does not help.

    That module only affects the system PC speaker. You say "when the volume is not mute[d]"; is the beep coming from the soundcard or the PC speaker? If it's coming from the latter, unload the pcspkr module (and be sure to unload snd_pcsp as well if you're on a 2.6.28 or higher kernel).

  • [SOLVED] Gnome 3.2 shutdown/restart button as menu options

    hi there.
    i have recently add gnome as gui and i have difficulty finding how to add the buttons shutdown/restart at the top right position where logout is right now.
    for the moment to shutdown or restart i have to either logout and do it from there (if it doesn't freeze, sometimes does that) or open console and shutdown or reboot from there.
    can anyone help with this matter?
    thank you in advanced.

  • API to lock/shutdown/restart the Phone from wp8.1 App

    Hi 
    is there any apis available to lock/shutdown/restart the Phone from wp 8.1 App

    Microsoft may allow you to access the API if you are a device manufacturer or carrier. Also possibly if you are building a company app for private distribution. In general, 3rd party apps in the Windows Store are not allowed to access API that affect the
    device as a whole.
    iOS and Android also don't allow programmatic restart or shutdown (unless the device is jailbroken/unlocked). They are dangerous API that will be exploited if generally allowed.
