I was gonna answer with a bat at first but figured I should take a swing at google lol. Yea .bat or using an alternative program for the need with it built in seems the only way to go. For file copying you might be able to find an alternative file explorer. Although I could not find one with shutdown ability.– UnfundednutCommented Jan 25, 2010 at 11:47

1You can always do the copy or move command inside the batch file...– William HilsumCommented Jan 25, 2010 at 11:50

Two good answers here, I'm going to go with Poweroff for now, but this one is also appreciated - I didn't realise that bat files were so serial in nature.– glenatronCommented Jan 25, 2010 at 13:03

They don't have to be, if you replace "notepad" with "start notepad" it will do it separately and continue. Making batch files process in order and waiting is one of the best benefits!– William HilsumCommented Jan 25, 2010 at 13:09

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. windows-7), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
