Service Killer for Shutdown?
TaoPhoenix:
This one is inspired by the fact that AppleMobileDeviceSvc and maybe a few others block my machine from shutting down.
So it would be neat if when a shutdown command is triggered, this program kicks in first, and power-bombs said services, and then the shutdown would be "as normal". In a perfect world, you fiddle with the settings but then no dialogs, it "just works" - aka you set the services once in a Settings, not a popup every time "do you want to kill X".
Because it's the same X ones every time.
A bonus feature would be that Adobe Update Reminders only seem to come in *after* I reboot ... but that burned four minutes already! So Adobe would "threaten" ten more minutes of lost time!

How about a batch?
maybe-not-100%-working dummy example Shutdown.cmd:
--- ---@ECHO OFF
net stop AppleMobileDeviceSvc
net stop "another X"
shutdown /s /t 99 /c "shut down by TaoPhoenix"

Hehe. I am a dumb Humanities Birdie. So can you please make into something that I double click and it then sits there?
: )
AbteriX:
Step-by-Step:
- create a new text file on your desktop
- open it to edit and enter:
--- ---@ECHO OFF
REM Everything behind the word REM is just a comment
REM Your description, what this batch does goes here...
REM stop this services:
REM (type NET START in a DOS-BOX to see the service names to use here)
NET STOP theNameOfServiceToStop
NET STOP "theNameOfService with blanks to stop"
REM shut down the PC. Enter 'shutdown /?' into a DOS-Box to see all available parameters
SHUTDOWN /S
REM this is the end, my friend
- save this file with a CMD extension like shutdown.cmd
- double click this batch file and watch your PC shutting down.
I can't guarantee that it will work with your environment and settings...
Maybe you have to right click the batch and choose "Run As Admin" for Vista/Win7 to execute with enough rights.
Perhaps you have to enter a line or two in between to wait before doing the next step, like
PING -n 8 127.1.2.3 >NUL
Any more questions? Just asks...
TaoPhoenix:
This is what I get from however I interpreted your advice:

Win XP if that helps. (Rumored to be slightly grouchy!)
