Try to design it like a service and use this code:
...
using System.Management;
...
void shutdown()
{
ManagementBaseObject mboShutdown = null;
ManagementClass mcWin32 = new
ManagementClass("Win32_OperatingSystem");
mcWin32.Get();
// You can't shutdown without security privileges
mcWin32.Scope.Options.EnablePrivileges = true;
ManagementBaseObject mboShutdownParams =
mcWin32.GetMethodParameters("Win32Shutdown");
// Flag 1 means we want to shut down the system. Use "2"
to reboot.
mboShutdownParams["Flags"] = "1";
mboShutdownParams["Reserved"] = "0";
foreach (ManagementObject manObj in
mcWin32.GetInstances())
{
mboShutdown = manObj.InvokeMethod("Win32Shutdown",
mboShutdownParams,
null);
}
}
Cheers!
