I have recently used a script to RUNDLL.EXE to make win98 shutdown properly.
Does anyone know of a way to make this run when a user clicks the shutdown button in the start menu. I currently use a desktop shortcut.

Thanks.
 
When you mean "Shut Down Properly" are you talking about closing All programs and all window ? Because I shutdown my win98se machine by clicking Start-Shutdown-OK and it works just fine, but it remember my desktop !!!
 
We have downloaded all of the shutdown patches from MS but they work for a while and then return to not shuting down, they get as far as the Windows is shutting down screen then stop.

Running this script at shutdown works every time without fail it closes all progs logs the user off then shuts down Windows.

C:\WINDOWS\RUNDLL.EXE USER.EXE,EXITWINDOWS

So i wanted to know if i could make the shutdown button run this.
