Shut Down Executable
Hi,
Can somebody guide me on how to get Windows XP Pro to run an executable when Shut Down is initiated, either from the StartShut Down or using the power switch.? An example of what I had in mind is to get something like Disk Cleaner run whenever the machine is shot down for the day. This is as opposed to specifying a program to run on Start Up. Regards and thanks in advance for any illumination. Satyanyaya

Shut Down Executable
Hi,
Thanks for the response. I did check Scheduled Tasks (if that is the same as the Task Scheduler you mentioned) - however it has a setting for "At System Start Up" and not for "At System Shut Down", or maybe I did not know where to look.
