Hi, 
ReneGe: 
thanks for the instruction / note - question here.. is this one replaced my whole entire entries before the shutdown command? 
I am not good at this at all - please excuse the stupidity question and thank you for your input!
</div>

<div>
It does not replace your following command lines (btw, I did not look at them, assuming that you tested them): 
 
echo y | chkdsk /f /r 
echo y | gpupdate /force 
echo enter 'shutdown -a' to abort the shutdown 
start &quot;&quot;&nbsp;shutdown -f -r -t 30 
exit 
 
Cheers, 
Rene

Batch to delete IE History folders - files in other user profile

Batch files are text files containing a script of commands that are executed by the command interpreter on DOS, OS/2 and Windows systems. Most commonly, they are used to perform a series of functions that are repeated -- copying a set of files created daily with one step, for example.

Windows Batch

Microsoft Disk Operating System (MS-DOS) was an operating system for x86-based personal computers, and traces of it are still found in the Windows operating system. DOS is still used in some embedded systems and for certain legacy 16-bit networks.

Microsoft DOS

The term 'shell' refers to a general class of text-based command interpreters most often associated with the UNIX and Linux operating systems. Popular shells include Bourne, Debian Almquist (dash), Korn (ksh), Bourne Again (bash) and the C shell family (csh). Some view the DOS 'cmd' prompt as a minimal shell of sorts. It is also possible to install Cygwin on Windows and emulate a full Unix environment with complete shell capabilities. Terminal emulators, such as xterm, GNOME Terminal and OS X Terminal, can be used to access shell.
