shutdown my computer using C#

[Mohammed Abdel-Razzak]

Dear sirs
I want to know how can I shutdown or restart my computer
using C#
Also I want to know how can I open any windows program
using C# (EX: opening the windows calculator from my
application)

thanks
Mohammed

You can use ExitWindowsEx() Win32 API (thru PInvoke) to shutdown/restart the
computer.

For opening other apps, you can use Process.Start() method.

Also I want to know how can I open any windows program using C# (EX:

Process.Start("calc.exe");

thanks so much for your help, but I don`t know where I
place that code

Place it wherever you want! If you want the user to shut down the computer
(or launch Calculator) by clicking a button, place the code in the button's
_Click() event, etc...
