My office PC is WinXPPro SP3 with 2GB RAM, a Dell Optiplex 785 I think.
When it shuts down, it hangs, and I'm fairly certain that's because a particular running application, GoToMyPC, doesn't terminate well. (GoToMyPC lets me access the office PC from home or elsewhere.) So I'd like to run a script automatically when I shut down the PC to first turn off GoToMyPC before the rest of the PC shutdown continues.
One of the contributors here told me to go to (Start -> run -> gpedit.msc -> computer configuration -> windows settings -> scripts) as the place to put the script. OK, but I've never written a script, so what script should I write to exit from the GoToMyPC application nice and smooth?
Is there an app that writes the script for me just by watching my actions -- like recording a macro? If yes, could I "record" myself doing a manual exit from GoToMyPC as the script?
Thanks.
