Shutdown not working for Windows 11

Post by dragon24x »

I tried to shut down my computer with push2talk using the example cards exactly as it says. I copied and pasted /s /t 10 /c "requested by home automation" to shut down my computer but nothing happens. I have push2talk connected with IFTTT and every time I check the log it shows me that the action failed at the Pushbullet phase. Has the parameter changed or does the program need to be updated? I really want this to work so can someone help me please?

After you have said the command to shutdown the computer can you please paste into a reply post here a copy of your Push2Run Session log.

To do this, please just go to the main window, click on View - Session log, and then in the window that pops up please click the button 'Copy to clipboard' and then paste the contents of your clipboard into a post here.

Also, could you please take a screenshot of the Push2Run card you are using and include it in the reply post as well.

2022-10-19 21:48:27.268 - Push2Run version 4.5.0.0 started

2022-10-19 21:48:27.273 - Windows UAC notify feature is on

2022-10-19 21:48:27.275 - Normal privileges are in effect

2022-10-19 21:48:27.396 - Current network adapter is Ethernet 2

2022-10-19 21:48:27.437 - Network status is up

2022-10-19 21:48:28.561 - Pushbullet connected

2022-10-19 21:48:28.831 - Daily database backup already run

2022-10-19 21:48:28.834 - Daily settings backup already run

This is the log I receive because nothing happens when I use IFTTT. Therefore, I skipped the IFTTT step and went into the Pushbullet android app and typed "shutdown" and my computer down successfully. Image

There is a note at https://www.push2run.com/help/setup.html which reads:

** currently there seems to be an issue with IFTTT and Google such that newly entered IFTTT applets may not work unless you go into the Google Home app on your phone and relink the IFTTT service. To do this, when you are in your Google Home app, tap on the '+' sign at the top right of the screen, tap on 'Set up device', tap on 'Works with Google', tap on 'IFTTT', tap on Reconnect account', tap on 'Continue', after which time you can leave the Google Home app. **

can you try that and see if it helps.
