Resart Faster

When you need to restart Windows, here's how to cut short the sometimes lengthy reboot process. You just do this once and your reboot is significantly shorter.

Launch Notepad and type the following line:

@EXIT

Save the file as C:\Windows\Desktop \Restart.bat. An icon for the file will show up on your desktop. Right-click on the icon; choose Properties, then the Program tab. Make sure the "Close on Exit" option is enabled. Click the Advanced button, and make sure that the MS-DOS mode option is selected and that the "Warn before entering MS-DOS mode"option is deselected. Click OK to close both dialog boxes. A second icon (Restart.pif) will be created. Double-click on this icon whenever you need to restart Windows.

This method only re-starts Windows(not your computer) and so it is much faster!
