"Really Great Shutdown/Restart+Logoff-Accesser"
Version: Brutus 2006
Pros
A really speedy way to have really fast access to-Logoff/Shutdown//Restart-Options
Not only that, you're able to customize things within your start menu with this program
of course, it's also able to be done manually, but this program does it tooCons
It doesn't actually speed up your computer's startup as much as you might think it would
If you customize too many start menu options, you could cause a few startup problems that you'd need to start fixing, but other than that this product's greatSummary
Great fast and easy access to your Logoff/Shutdown//Restart-Options
And there's Also An Option that says:
Recommended for labtops/computers that take a while to get to shutdown options
This program makes Logoff,Shutdown+RestartIcons for you
It's a great fast shutdown accessing program
Just be careful not to put it in your quicklaunch and accidentally click Shutdown,Restart,OrEvenLogoff-byMistake cuz if you do that, you could probably tell you wouldn't want to do that, so, in conclusion, fast access to shutdown/restart+logoff-options, just be careful
