Files closing will happen by itself, though it won't cleanly close whatever app has them open for a user on their PC of course with a shared file open.<br />
<br />
@echo off<br />
shutdown /m \\remoteserver /r /t 15 /c &quot;Rebooted remotely&quot; /d p:0:0 &nbsp;(or other params as you want see shutdown -?)<br />
<br />
Someone else can sort out the emailing if wanted, late was just shutting down PC..... &nbsp;would monitor PING output and then send a message with a short VBScript, something like this script of mine here:<br />

Hi<br />
So I need to have a script that I can create a shortcut to so when I double click it closes all open files on a remote windows 2008 r2 server, reboots that server and notifies 3 email addresses that server is back up.<br />
<br />
Cheers

Scripts to close open files and reboot

VBScript (Visual Basic Scripting Edition) is an interpreted scripting language developed by Microsoft that is modeled on Visual Basic, but with some important differences. VBScript is commonly used for automating administrative and other tasks in Windows operating systems (by means of the Windows Script Host) and for server-side scripting in ASP web applications. It is also used for client-side scripting in Internet Explorer, specifically in intranet web applications.

VB Script

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

Windows Server 2008 and Windows Server 2008 R2, based on the Microsoft Vista codebase, is the last 32-bit server operating system released by Microsoft. It has a number of versions, including including Foundation, Standard, Enterprise, Datacenter, Web, HPC Server, Itanium and Storage; new features included server core installation and Hyper-V.
