I get the following error when trying to create the shortcut as specified on the first tip at
http://www.winguides.com/registry/ (http://www.winguides.com/external.php?url=http://www.winguides.com/registry/)

Below is my shortcut...
C:\WINDOWS\RUNDLL32.EXE shell32,SHExitWindowsEx 1

But I get the following error...
Error in shell32
Missing entry:SHExitWindowsEx

Rundll32 info...
OS: Windows95
DLL version: 4.00.950
Size: 8,192 bytes

Thanks

your message tells me you are running Win95. Now if you have never downloaded any updates from windowsupdates.microsoft.com, you may not be able to use this tweak. If you have IE4 or later and have installed the "desktop update", then J believe it should have worked.

Try this (no guarantee that it works, J am not at my Win95 machine):
use "SHExitWindows" rather than "SHExitWindowsEx".

I believe that particular one is for Win98, try this one:

c:\windows\rundll.exe user.exe,ExitWindows
