I am using windows 8, and I am opening the bat file via a VBScript. After proceeding past the 2nd message in the Cmd prompt, it zooms past a bunch of text and closes itself. No message box, no nothing. My delay was set to 1 minute, and nothing happened. any help? I edited the messages such as “wanna be friends”, etc, and in one case, I removed the “Type some message!”. What am I doing wrong? Is it the operating system? Thanks!

@Noe, Which operating System are you using ? Directly try this out: Open command prompt. and type: shutdown -s -f -t 100 or simply type shutdown -s If that works, then you've done something wrong while typing the commands in the .bat file explained in the able article. @venkat, thnks to you too, for visiting our blog.

In reply to Sora. @Sora, No you can't change the file extension. If you change the extension from .bat to anything else, this wouldn't work as described in above article. You can only change the file name. However you can change the file icon to something else and people will usually not see the file extension before opening it. Most of us determine by seeing it's icon!
