Hi everyone! Well, I found out that there is a way to remotely shutdown a computer on a workgroup using the command prompt. I've been putting in the following sequence: "shutdown.exe -s -m \\computername" like it says to remotely shutdown a computer. Well, when i hit enter, it seems like its trying to work but then it'll give me an error saying "Network path not found." Is there a different way to remotely shut down a computer on a network USING the command prompt? :idea: THANKS!
