Good morning,

Background to task: Shut down Ensemble from a task in Task Manager.

I have a batch file that shuts down Ensemble when run as administrator. I can confirm this works, as it brings up the shutdown/restart prompt for Ensemble, however I now need to plug this into Ensemble's Task Scheduler so it can be run on-demand.

At present I am trying to use: do ^execute: %windir%\system32\cmd.exe Z:\Scripts\shutdown.lnk

This is to run the batch file from the shortcut, which runs it as admin. I get a syntax error, which I am not surprised to see, so could I have some advice on how to code this better? Alternatively, if anyone has any better ideas to shutdown Ensemble from Task Manager I am open to suggestions.

Many thanks and kind regards, Alexi Demetriou
