Hi All,

I'd like to do the following using a Shutdown script in Group Policy:

1. Shutdown all user computers on the network
2. Specify a date and time (Fridays @11pm)
3. Close any applications they may have open prior to shutdown (will not matter if they have open documents or not - they will be responsible for saving there own documents)

I am aware of certain parameters that are available but am not sure on how to use them for what I want it to do.

If anyone could help I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks!

You can use a batch file that executes PsShutdown on a list of computers. Use a scheduled task to run the batch file.

Really great for this post but for all the computers after command run then it do the process of shutdown but it's not fully power off the machine. It's display blue screen with word "it's now safe to turn off the computer."
Any option that i can power off it?
