On second thought I'm afraid windows will like to close virtualbox THEN execute your script. :-/ Why not just create a new shutdown script that 1 first invokes the vboxmanage virutal machine shutdown then 2. callsshutdown.exe with the required parameters (for example: shutdown.exe /s )? More info on shutdown.exe parameters here http://forum.thewindowsclub.com/windows-tips-tutorials-articles/34495-new-cmd-switches-shutdown-exe-windows-8-includes-hybrid-but-not-full.html It'd be a matter of creating (say, via Notepad) a c:\shutdownAllVMs.cmd file, and then create a shortcut of it on the desktop. Make sure it runs with administrator privileges. Sorry,that's the best my brain can do ATM. Someone else might be able to think about other scenarios... :) Best of luck, FC -- During times of Universal Deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act Durante épocas de Engaño Universal, decir la verdad se convierte en un Acto Revolucionario - George Orwell
