ShutdownPE provides basic and advanced options for shutdown/restart in PE and is designed to work with all current projects.

Features:

• Provides a nice looking simple GUI similar to XP's and BS Explorer's shutdown dialogs
• No more accidentally clicking on the current start menu icons and immediately having the computer turn off
• 1 icon instead of 2 = less clutter in start menu
• provides an option to eject CD's
• filebuffers are flushed before shutdown/restart (safe shutdown)
• run your custom commands before shutdown/restart
• Integrates with ClearLock or your favorite screen lock program.
• translate into your native language
• script option to integrate ShutdownPE and ClearLock with Windows Explorer Start Menu Button

if you would like to help translate ShutdownPE into your native language please send me a PM and I will contact you with further instructions.

Thanks those who took the time to translate

ShutdownPE has been updated and now has full support for integrating with Windows Explorer and the Start Menu Button on x64 builds!

There are some (really unimportant) troubles when using ShutDown from within qEmu. The session ends with a BSOD.

Peter

are you using the explorer integration (SPEHook.dll) or just the standard shutdown shortcut? I think i remember seeing something like that with vmware in some circumstances as well. I'll look into it further when I get back from my business trip wed. night.
thanks.

On line 42 of your script you call the unpack function with these parameters:
Unpack,%SourceArch%,,True,%target_win%,system32,%ProgramEXE%
According to the api outlined here: http://code.google.c...der/wiki/unpack, a value of true/false for the third parameter is only valid if the second parameter specifies an archive. Since no archive is specified in the second parameter, the third archive would indicate a specific file to extract instead.
Should that line not read as Unpack,%SourceArch%,,,%target_win%,system32,%ProgramEXE% instead?

it could. doesn't really matter as that parameter is discarded. Actually a faster and more efficient way to write that line is:

ExtractAllFiles,%ScriptFile%,%SourceArch%,%Target_Sys%

I'll add as a silent update this evening.

ShutdownPE provides basic and advanced options for shutdown/restart in PE and is designed to work with all current projects.

Works great in my Win7PE SE but no luck with Gena XP Live. Is this compatible with Gena as far as anyone knows? Is there something special that has to be turned off in pre build for this script to work with XP PE?

OK, not sure what changed but got it half working. Desktop ICON shows up now but still is not the default shutdown eject. Clicking on the desktop icon works fine.

you will have to make sure that the default shutdown tools for Gena are disabled. Gena uses paragliders shutdown tools which work by replacing msgina.dll (logon user interface) that directly integrates with winlogin. with vista/7/8 MS did away with msgina.dll so shutdownPE uses AppInit to hook the shutdown functions. paragliders tools will always override shutdownPE because it is loaded at a lower level in the OS.

to disable comment out lines 225-228 in the file: %BaseDir%ProjectsGenaShellsExplorer.script
so it looks like this

// FileRename,%target_sys%msgina.dll,%target_sys%ginaorg.dll

// If,%SourceArch%,Equal,x86,ExtractAllFiles,%ScriptFile%,Folder,%target_sys%

// If,%SourceArch%,Equal,x64,ExtractAllFiles,%ScriptFile%,FolderX64,%target_sys%

// FileRename,%target_sys%PEgina.dll,%target_sys%msgina.dll

then everything should be fine.

I could modify the shutdownPE script to aggressively detect and override alternate shutdown methods like Reboot.dll and paragliders shutdown tools if and only if the Start Menu intergration option in the scripts interface is set to something other that "No Integration". (with plenty of warnings in the log to be sure the user is aware what is happening)
does anyone have any options or concerns with this?

I don't have an issue with it. I would be glad to test it for you and report. So if I understand you, your new script would overwrite the defaults in Gena and shutdownPE would become the new default? If so, count me in!

[homes32]

ShutdownPE v16.Beta 1 Available!

Script will now check for and override: paraglider's shutdown tools (LiveXP/Gena), RebootTrace/Reboot.dll

Testers wanted for LiveXP/Gena and Win7PE-SE with explorer shell > Enable shutdown button checked.

ShutdownPE.Beta16.script

[laddanator]

Testing now my good sir! Thanks.

[laddanator]

Ok, not sure if I did this correct. Shutdown still shows up on desktop but not default in Gena. Should the script be before explore shell script runs or after? Explore shell script got ran after your beta script or does it matter?

[homes32]

it needs to be run after the explorer shell script.

[laddanator]

That's what I thought but any folder I put the scripts in, moves it to the top before explore? Any Ideas? What is the proper folder?

I got it tweaks folder. I was having a brain fart! Its below explorer script now. Running build as I type

[laddanator]

Ok, ran after explorer script and still not defaut shutdown program. Desktop icon but not default. This is a Gena build also.

please post your build log

[laddanator]

Ok, give me a few

Here you go. I see the error for Shutdown at the bottom of the log.

Did my report help you any?

[homes32]

Did my report help you any?

sorry. yeah it did.
when I designed the integration it was mainly for Vista/Win7 which don't have the system shutdown dialog. XP does so I will have to hook calls to ShellShutdownDialog as well in this case. ShutdownPE is still intercepting shutdown calls properly though.
stay tuned.

[laddanator]

Thanks! Meant to post that when I click on shutdown in Gena, it shows the the old style shutdown and then when I pick shutdown or restart from the menu, it will then pop up shutdownPE dialog and then you have to choose again, shutdown or restart so its getting there.
