Put a Restart or Shutdown Button on the Vista Desktop

Windows Vista did improve on Windows XP in many ways. One particular thing that was not improvement was the steps required to shut the computer off or restart. We can avoid all of that by creating a icon on the desktop that will shut down the computer or restart it.

On your Desktop, Right-Click then select New then Shortcut

For Type the location of the item type shutdown -r -t 0

Click Next, then enter a name, such as Restart My PC

Note: If you'd like the shortcut to shut off your PC instead, change the r to a s. So, for the location you would type shutdown -s -t 0
