Hi John

Thank you for your answer.
This could probably work, but then my application would call Windows to shut 
down, not the user anymore.
The whole thing takes place when we are already in a shutdown sequence. The 
problem is that somehow the sequence is interrupted and Windows does not 
complete it. So rather than a way of restarting a new shutdown sequence I 
was looking for a way to complete the initial shutdown sequence started by 
the user.
