how does your code look like?API Function
Declare Function ExitWindowsEx Lib "user32" Alias "ExitWindowsEx" (ByVal uFlags As Long, ByVal dwReserved As Long) As Long
use EWX_REBOOT for uFlags.
BTW, the calling process must have SE_SHUTDOWN_NAME privilege in order for this to work.
my code:
Const EWX_LOGOFF = 0
Const EWX_SHUTDOWN = 1
Const EWX_REBOOT = 2
Const EWX_FORCE = 4
Private Declare Function ExitWindowsEx Lib "user32" (ByVal uFlags As Long, ByVal dwReserved As Long) As Long
Private Sub Form_Load()
msg = MsgBox("This program is going to reboot your computer. Press OK to continue or Cancel to stop.", vbCritical + vbOKCancel + 256, App.Title)
If msg = vbCancel Then End
'reboot the computer
ret& = ExitWindowsEx(EWX_FORCE Or EWX_REBOOT, 0)
Unload Me
End Sub
what is SE_SHUTDOWN_NAME privilege? blur~
