A box should come up and ask the location of the shortcut. You can set a timer on the shutdown and restart icons. You can also have a message appear when you click on them.

****NOTE: THE FOLLOWING MUST BE TYPED EXACTLY. WHERE IT SAYS "SHUTDOWN" AFTER THE 2 EQUAL SIGNS IS WHAT YOU TYPE IN. ALSO NOTE: THE LOCK ICON IS DIFFERENT FROM THE OTHER ONES.****

SHUTDOWN ICON== shutdown.exe -s -t 60 -c "TYPE MESSAGE HERE"

RESTART ICON== shutdown.exe -r -t 60 -c "MESSAGE HERE"

LOCK ICON== rundll32.exe user32.dll,LockWorkStation

HIBERNATE ICON== shutdown.exe -h

LOGOFF ICON== shutdown.exe -l

ABORT ICON== shutdown.exe -a

2. Click NEXT

4. CLICK FINISH
