Andy78 lol I literally don't get it... it's SO convenient to hit start, type a terminal command, and have it execute. Since windows 7 when they messed up the shutdown/restart menu, i've been hitting start and typing "shutdown -r -t 1" - which is faster than me having to find wherever they put the restart 10 clicks later... I can't do that anymore 😞
