Hi,

To reboot computer there are two methods in VB. I think you use .net code. I will give you both codes.

  • Shell command

Shutdown –r

  • .net command

           System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("shutdown", "/r") '

Changing letter “ r “ you can change the process to shutdown ,restart, or logoff.

Thanks.

There are various commands to shut down the computer. Using the below code will shut down the computer after a 30 seconds delay:

System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("shutdown", "/r")

To avoid the delay you can use below command:

System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("ShutDown","/r /t 00")

See the below Thread for more options for restarting your computer using commands.
