Command Line Switches?

Great little program!

I totally agree with Radioguy in his "streamline" post. Is there any way to run this thing from the command line with switches? I'd like a shortcut that will automatically run the wizard and reboot with one click.

To run

"C:\Program Files\Ace Utilities\aceutils.exe" /tasks:jrhs

r -scans and cleans Windows Registry
h -erases History
j -removes junk files
s -removes invalid shortcuts

Thanks,

Is there a way to get it to automatically restart the machine too? I've been tinkering with adding the shutdown command but not sure if this will even work or if I am using the wrong syntax.

Thanks Again

Hmm... Currently no.

Do you think it is important ? We did not add it since user might not want his machine to reboot without his consent.

I think it's pretty important as long as it is a seperate switch to reboot so when running from the command line you can make a shortcut to just clean and one to clean and reboot.

When I go to lunch or on break I would like to click one button before I leave and have it cleaned and rebooted when I come back. One cleaner I have has a button for a quick clean and one for clean and reboot but it doesn't do half of what this one does.

Maybe I'll work on a batch file to do this.

Thanks

Also, could you add a shutdown switch, when I go home I can just hit that shortcut and in the morning we are all clean when I boot up.

I'd like to see two options in the wizard, clean and reboot, clean and shutdown. Without it asking anything, just click the wizard and choose your option (clean and reboot or clean and shutdown), but if not, command line switches will have to do.

Thanks

I'm pretty sure if you could find a small command line restart program,put it in the ACE folder and execute it with the ACE command line switches...
