Restarting your computer just got easier. Instead of having to click on your start button, click Shut Down, then select Restart, you can now have a button on your desktop that will restart your pc once you double click on it.

This is a handy little trick; you can put a restart button on your desktop.

On your Desktop, Right-Click then select New then Shortcut

For Type the location of the item type shutdown -r -t 0

Click Next, then enter a name, such as Restart My PC

(Note: If you'd like the shortcut to shut off your PC instead, change the r to a s )
