TI Home 2010 option to shutdown
After upgrade from True Image Home 2009 to 2010, I no longer have the option to "shutdown after completion" of the backup. This was, in the 2009 version, a pop-up, displayed at start of backup.
Ideally it would be nice to have a setting to shutdown or standby or hibernate.
How can I execute an automatic shutdown on completion of a backup task?
I have tried to enter the shutdown -s following all the suggestions in this forum but without success.

Maurice,
I feel absolutely certain you can be successful if you create a batch file to do the job. Look at this post.

If you do not want to create a batch file try this in your Acronis post processing window.
%windir%\system32\shutdown.exe -s -f
Let us know the results of whatever you try. Thank you.

Does anyone know a post-processing command that will sleep or hibernate Window 7 rather than shut it down?
I've had some success issuing a call to a Macro Express .exe that runs a macro; however, that has inexplicably stopped working and I haven't yet determined whether the problem is with TrueImage Home or Macro Express.

Thanks, shutdown /h works from the command line. I'll let you know how I get on running it from True Image. I don't know how I missed that option for the shutdown command!

Yes, shutdown.exe /h has been working well for the last few nights. Thanks for the help.
