Tomcat Posts: 433 Rating: (48)	Hi, for deactivating of WinCC Runtime you could you "ShutdownWinCC" (http://www.industry.siemens.com/IT4Industry/EN/SOLUTION_SERVICES/SIMATIC_ADDONS/shutdn.htm). It's a exe-file, which you can call in your c/c++ program. There are 5 optional parameters: 1) WinCC is quitted and the WinCC-databases are saved. 2) WinCC is quitted, the databases are saved and the user is logged off the operation system. 3) WinCC is quitted, the databases are saved and the computer is shut down. 4) WinCC is quitted the databases are saved and the operation system is restarted. 5) WinCC is quitted, the databases are saved and the computer is shut down and turned off. The contact is: it4industry@siemens.com (+49 9131/7-46111). Tomcat
