Shut down or restart computers across your Windows domain — on schedule or on demand. Agentless, bulk-capable, and 100% free. Perfect for after-hours patching, lab management, and power-saving campaigns.
Every feature is purpose-built for real Windows administration work — designed to save time, reduce disruption, and keep your fleet under control.
Restart a misbehaving workstation, shut down an entire lab at end-of-day, or schedule a bulk reboot for patch Tuesday. The tool handles single machines or hundreds of computers across your domain with the same simple workflow — no scripts, no GPOs.
Select one computer or thousands. The tool processes operations in parallel — no waiting for sequential execution. Perfect for end-of-day labs and patch-cycle reboots.
Schedule shutdowns or restarts for after-hours, weekends, or patch windows. Set it once, walk away — the tool fires at the scheduled time with zero supervision.
Push a custom warning message to the active user before shutdown — give them time to save work. Reduce help-desk tickets from lost data.
Beyond shutdown and restart, force logoff, hibernate, or sleep on remote machines. Useful for cache resets, profile cleanup, and energy savings.
Pair with Wake on LAN for full power-cycle control, and with Currently Logged-on User to confirm no critical work is in progress. All 15 tools, one download.
From download to first result in five simple steps. No complex configuration, no firewall rules, no additional licensing.
Install on your admin workstation. No agent push needed — target computers receive shutdown commands via native Windows protocols and authenticated domain credentials.
