Closing Apps Automatically at Restart, Shutdown or Sign Out in Windows 10

And this also works in Windows 7. A user who uses speech recognition to control her computer wanted to be able to switch off the computer with her voice but was unable to due to two things, Dragon showed a user profile save dialogue box and force shutdown window. Using the command “AutoEndTask” and adding it to the register did the trick and the computer was able to close everything down. In order to stop the user profile dialogue in Dragon to appear an option in the data section to “save profile automatically” enabled dragon to pass that stage. I could see it was saving the profile.

In order to add the AutoEndTask command follow the instructions on the link below:-

“After one of your recent training sessions, I visited your Techsavvy session and discovered the virtual tour guides. A a result my husband and I enjoyed a splendid trip to Edinburgh. A city I have avoided for a number of years due to its challenges for a wheelchair user due to its very steep streets and cobbles. I think the sessions you have posted are really good and I hoped you would be happy if I suggested these to clients, I am assisting in my volunteering journey. I am also liaising with a local charity who are trying to encourage their older members and I think they too could benefit from your regular hints and tips so would like to suggest they pass on the Techsavvy links. You really are an inspiration.” –
