How do u shut down other peoples computers with comand prompt?

Question

my teacher is testing us and i need to learn how?

Answer 1

shutdown -m \\computername

Answer 2

shutdown -s -m \\hostname

but it only works if you have the right admin privilege to do it.

Answer 3

shutdown -s -f -m \\THEPC YOU WANT TO SHUT DOWN -t 0

this shuts down the person computer immediately. the number after the t is a time to countdown on their pc, if you want to put a message to the person, in which you are shutting down their pc type -c after a space after the 0 then put "haha" or something in speech marks and it will shutdown their pc, and pop up a message to them saying haha

Answer 4

Windows XP

in the cmd prompt, type shutdown /?

this will give you the different options with shutdown, like shutdown and restart or remote shutdown or restart.

So if you just want to shutdown the cmd would be:

shutdown -s

As in your case, see remote prompt below in source.

Answer 5

in the command prompt window type shutdown.exe

or shutdown.exe -r (reboots machine)

Shutdown.exe -t x (replace 'x' with a number to do a timed shutdown)
