Remote Shutdown question
I have read and read and read on this issue and it seems i need to tweak my registry to perform a remote shutdown due to the fact I have Win 7 Home Premium....
Here's the Deal, I have 4 PC's on my home network and I want to be able to remotely shutdown all of them from my Laptop at night.
I've tried to do it via the Shutdown -i command but I get "access denied" so I researched that and found that I need to go into "Group Policy editor" and activate remote shut down.... Then I find out that Home Premium doesnt have the gpedit.msc as part of the operating system and the only way to activate the policy is in the registry...
Can somebody tell me where in the registry I need to make changes and what changes I need to make to activate the "Remote Shutdown over my local home network....
I really would appreciate the assistance....My kids constantly leave the PC's on in the house and I really want control over them especially when my son doesnt want to get off his video games.
Thank you
Jess
