Hi people,
today we will be talking about a simple trick which is “How Turn off your PC with
a cell phone”. Now I know that we may have seen this happen in some movies and
are surprised on how this is done, you need not to be surprised anymore
because, with this simple method I’m about to show you, a user can simply shut down
(turn off), Restart, and Hibernate His or Her PC with a cell phone, whenever the need arises
most especially when you forget to shut your PC down before living the house. Now let’s Get Started….
Note, to do
is this; Make sure you have Microsoft Outlook in your Pc or Pc you wish to use,
which always comes with Microsoft Office.
Now This is how
it is Done.
Step 1:
You need the
batch files to perform the Shutdown, Hibernate…. You can simply write it down
yourselve.
You open Notepad and write this code the exact
way you see it:
c:\windows\system32\shutdown -s -f -t 00
And then you
save it as shutdown.bat
Step2:
Open
Microsoft Outlook; be sure that you have configured it for your emails. Now we
will have to make Microsoft Outlook check your Inbox every One minute (1 minute
is for testing time and can be increased if you want a delayed shut down as
desired). You Do this by going to Tools> Options and then click on the mail
set up tab, afterwards the Send/Receive button. Be sure that the schedule
automatic Send/Receive…box is checked and then set the number of minutes to 1
min or desired time.
Step3:
Now you go
to tools in Microsoft outlook and afterwards Rules and Alerts and click on the
Options button on top right hand corner, now click on the import rules button. And
then select the Shutdown.bat file
you have created…..tadaaw you have finished setting up your Pc.
So now that
you have set up your PC for this, you can now send an SMS from your phone to your
E-mail address, with the subject Shutdown
or shutdown%% and then, your computer will shut down or turn off.
I hope you
find these post interesting peeps…….Until next time
