look at psshutdown from microsoft, this will let you expand the options a lot quicker

you can use it to do a shutdown command for all computers in computers.txt

computers.txt contents..

computer1
computer2
computer3


etc

psshutdown is owned by Microsoft
 
It's a good app and it does what it says. but it does need a lot more options, and I feel the GUI is some what big. And Also I feel a nicer way of displaying the "x minutes" element where you select the length of time could be made a little easier to use.

Here is a comparison of yours and one I swear by, straight away you can see the features and size issue.

I'm trying to think of use-cases where I would want to shutdown my PC if the CPU usage is above a certain percentage?


:confused:
 
Well guys. I had a lot of requests from a users saying they want CPU/mem functionality as they'll be able to get their system shutdown while it's stress testing. An example is during prime95 an you check if it's above, say 80% for 120minutes you'll then be able to have your system shutdown without being awake for the stress test.

Also to do with the GUI I'm working with it and also bigger resolutions will find that this GUI is of good size. There is the option to minimise to the notification area so the window doesn't stay up all the time.

1) Why are you putting an extra update icon in my start menu?
2) How do I add another machine to the network list? Does that bit work yet?

1) What do you mean by an extra icon, it's the same config as all other versions

2) It detects all the networks and lists them, the networking module still needs a lot of work. You can also just type the name of the machine in the combo box as well it should work.

1) Either way it shouldn't be there. Just 2 icons in one folder would be great.
2) Ok, well for you wish list what about multiple machines? Can I import a CSV?

1) Are you talking that it comes up on your start menu when you click the start button? If so you can just remove it from there, I've put it to windows does that with some new software installations. I still have to fix that in the installation package.

2) You cannot import a CSV, the functionality on that box so far is that i detects your network and checks if any other machines are in your network and lists them there.

I will implement the multiple machines part in the next build, also will integrate a way to import a CSV.
 
OK this maybe a bit beyond the scope of the program, but what would be really cool is if you could connect to an active directory and say shut down all machines in a particular OU.
