    Schedule a job for the shutdown.exe utility either directly or from within a batch file.

    Code:
    Q:\>shutdown /?
    Usage: shutdown [-i | -l | -s | -r | -a] [-f] [-m \\computername] [-t xx] [c "comment"] [-d up:xx:yy]
    
            No args              Display this message (same as -?)
            -i                      Display GUI interface, must be the first option
            -l                      Log off (cannot be used with -m option)
            -s                     Shutdown the computer
            -r                      Shutdown and restart the computer
            -a                     Abort a system shutdown
            -m \\computername       Remote computer to shutdown/restart/abort
            -t xx                  Set timeout for shutdown to xx seconds
            -c "comment"      Shutdown comment (maximum of 127 characters)
            -f                      Forces running applications to close without warning
            -d [u][p]:xx:yy    The reason code for the shutdown
                                    u is the user code
                                    p is a planned shutdown code
                                    xx is the major reason code (positive integer less than 256)
                                    yy is the minor reason code (positive integer less than 65536)
