Ed_P:
The BartPE Shutdown plugin contains ShutdownP.exe and ShutdownS.exe. One is for powering down the computer the other for shutting down the computer. What is the difference in what they do? I've always used the words synonymously. Can they be run on a normal XP system, without causing damage?
paraglider:
ShutdownS shutsdown only.
ShutdownP shutsdown and powers off.
Depending on the bios they may do the same thing.
I will produce a new version which will at least flush the drive buffers before closing down. That will make it safer in normal XP.
