Hi, Christopher.  You can execute the 'shutdown.exe' (usually C:\Windows\System32\shutdown.exe) with the, 'Run an application' action.  If you want to force a shutdown with zero wait time, use the parameters, -s -f -t0.  

http://www.computerhope.com/shutdown.htm has a good list of parameters for different versions of Windows.

Hope that helps!

Are you having speech trouble as well, per your post on the VA Facebook page (I don't get notifications for the FB page)?

yes Gary, I really love this program, I just wish it could understand me better, is there a way to make it learn my speech somehow?

Have you trained your speech engine at all?  That usually has the biggest impact.  I would recommend doing it at least two times.

Also, background noise is a factor, mic volume level settings, poor/bad mic, software that alters your voice, accidentally using your webcam mic (thinking your headset is active), etc. Any of these can add to poor performance.  

It's almost always speech engine training, tho...

Hope some of that helps :)

train it then after training if you have specific words or phrases you can manually type the word or phrase then do a recording and it will put that in its “dictionary” for your profile...ive posted steps on doing this before so you may have to browse the website/forum for it...
