Blessed shortcuts. The shortcuts are ideal to quickly enter both applications and directories on our computer with a single click without having to navigate through the alternatives on our menu. It also enables us Quickly open files that are not on the desktop.

At the same time, if we know how to do it, we can also restart our computer, shut it down or go to sleep, without having to enter the start button of our team. If you do not like keyboard shortcuts with which we can also turn off our equipment, log off or suspend it, we can use a shortcut.

  • To create shortcuts in Windows 10 to be able to shut down, log off or put our computer to sleep, we must perform the following steps:
  • The first of all is to place ourselves on the Windows desktop.
  • Once there, right-click the mouse and from the alternatives menu that appears, click New> Shortcut.
  • Next, we must copy and paste the following lines depending on whether we want the team to:
  • he to turn off:
    • C: /Windows/System32/shutdown.exe -s -t 00
  • he restart
    • C: /Windows/System32/shutdown.exe -r -t 00
  • Or enter suspension:
    • C: /Windows/System32/Rundll32.exe powrprof.dll, SetSuspendStat

Once we have added the respective text, we must determine a shortcut name. Once we have created the shortcut, the ideal is to change its icon so that we can recognize it quickly.

If you are only going to create a shortcut, you should only place it, for example, on the taskbar, to be able to always have it at hand and avoid getting lost among the different icons that we may have on the desktop.
