Hi, I made a custom shell to autostart a program using minilogon. Inside the
program there is a windows shutdown function, but when i run that it shuts
down the shell program first and it keeps relaunching itself. Is there a
setting to make the shell program not restart once it exits? Thanks.

Look at the cmiWlxAutoRestartShell extended property of the Minlogon component.
Or corresponding reg.value : [HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon],"Config" (binary value, 5th bit).

registry "config" but i dont know what to change it to inorder to make it

If you click on a component node in a Configuration opened in TD on the right side panel you will see the component description and
etc. On the bottom of the panel you see Advanced... button. If you click on it, you open Advanced Component Properties dialog where
you can add/change any extended property of the component.
You will have to change cmiWlxAutoRestartShell property.
