Remote Shutdown

 

If you have been allocated Administration Rights (an Option selection) you will be able to remotely shutdown Office Messenger on other computers.

To remotely shutdown Office Messenger, proceed as follows:

  • Select the Remote Shutdown option from the Tools drop down menu and the following window will be displayed:

  1. Select and highlight the particular users of Office Messenger that are to be shut down (only users who are currently running Office Messenger will be listed).

  2. Type in a Warning message in the text box provided (or use the default message) that will be sent to the selected users notifying them that you are about to remotely shut down Office Messenger currently running on their computer.

  3. Click Warn selection and the Warning message will be displayed on the selected users. The Warn All will send the message to all Office Manager users whether selected or not.

  1. After a few minutes (time enough for the users to respond to the warning message) click the Shutdown Selection button. A message will be displayed on the remote users selected and Office Manager will also be shutdown. The Shutdown All button will shutdown all users whether selected or not.

  1. Clicking the Refresh button will refresh the list of users who are currently using Office Messenger.
