Quote: There are many places: 1) The "Startup" group in the Start Menu 2) The "Run" and "RunOnce" subkeys of the "SoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersion" key of the Register's HKEY_CURRENT_USER and HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE areas. It really depends on what your actual needs are, and what kind of systems you are targetting. Gambit Sorry for trouble, but why ExitWindowsEx(EWX_FORCE or EWX_LOGOFF or EWX_SHUTDOWN, 0) go fine and ....(EWX_REBOOT or EWX_POWEROFF, 0) seem do nothing? (ExitWindows() has no reboot capabilities! or not?) PS destination operating systems are Windows ME and XP (with or whitout SP2) Many thanks Nerio Back to top Remy Lebeau (TeamB) Guest Posted: Sun Aug 28, 2005 7:34 pm    Post subject: Re: Reset and restarting "Nerio" <ne_serzanti (AT) tin (DOT) it> wrote Quote: Sorry for trouble, but why ExitWindowsEx(EWX_FORCE or EWX_LOGOFF or EWX_SHUTDOWN, 0) go fine and ....(EWX_REBOOT or EWX_POWEROFF, 0) seem do nothing? Did you read the documentation for ExitWindows() yet? Did you adjust your program's privileges to allow rebooting in the first place?

Did you read the documentation for ExitWindows() yet? Did you adjust your program's privileges to allow rebooting in the first place? Gambit Really I am not able to change priviliges! My listing is : HANDLE Ht; TOKEN_PRIVILEGES newTp, oldTp; // to restore original values in due time LUID *myLuid; // used in LookupPrivilegeValue if(!OpenProcessToken(GetCurrentProcess(), TOKEN_ADJUST_PRIVILEGES | TOKEN_QUERY, &Ht)) { ShowMessage("Error opening Process Token"); return; } if(!LookupPrivilegeValue(0, SE_SHUTDOWN_NAME, myLuid)) // is useful ? { ShowMessage("Error reading Privilege Value"); return; } == now I should change to SE_PRIVILEGE_ENABLED the relative value in newTp but how? Probably I have to redo a more in-depth study of structures. Thank you very much Nerio Back to top Nerio Guest Posted: Tue Aug 30, 2005 10:10 am    Post subject: Re: Reset and restarting "Nerio" <ne_serzanti (AT) tin (DOT) it> ha scritto nel messaggio news:4312e8e4 (AT) newsgroups (DOT) borland.com...

My listing is : ........... Nerio The point is not my structures knowledge (or not only) but particularly my manifest ignorance of Windows. Searching in Googles I found this listing (adapted for my use) : ------ { HANDLE hToken; TOKEN_PRIVILEGES newTp, oldTp; unsigned long dwSize = sizeof(TOKEN_PRIVILEGES); LUID luid; if(!OpenProcessToken(GetCurrentProcess(), TOKEN_ADJUST_PRIVILEGES | TOKEN_QUERY, &hToken)) { ShowMessage("Error opening ProcessToken"); return; } if(!LookupPrivilegeValue(0, SE_SHUTDOWN_NAME, &luid)) { ShowMessage("Error reading PrivilegeValue"); return; } newTp.PrivilegeCount = 1; newTp.Privileges[0].Luid = luid; newTp.Privileges[0].Attributes = SE_PRIVILEGE_ENABLED; if(!AdjustTokenPrivileges(hToken, false, &newTp, sizeof(TOKEN_PRIVILEGES), &oldTp, &dwSize)) { ShowMessage("Error on AdjustToken - (enabling)"); CloseHandle(hToken); return; } ExitWindowsEx(EWX_REBOOT, 0); } ------ Many thanks again for help Nerio Back to top Remy Lebeau (TeamB) Guest Posted: Tue Sep 06, 2005 5:56 am    Post subject: Re: Reset and restarting "Nerio" <ne_serzanti (AT) tin (DOT) it> wrote Quote: Really I am not able to change priviliges! Plase go to http://www.deja.com and do a search through the newsgroup archives. Sample code has been posted many many times before.
