NJDave71 Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 Instead of Shutting Down or Restarting Windows when exiting Big Box perhaps you just want to Sign Out / Log off. This handy plugin gets that job done. (Great if you have a profile just for launching Big Box) Instructions Copy the SignOut.dll found in SignOut\SignOut\bin\Release\ to you Plugins Folder in Launchbox. What it does Adds Sign Out to the Main root menu in BigBox Adds Sign Out to the Tools Menu in Launchbox Included I have included the Source Code in case you wish to compile it yourself or review the code Happy Gaming.

adu Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 Hello ! Can you add the possibility to shutdown the computer when you exit BigBox in secure mode ? If it's possible, it will be wonderful for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJDave71 Posted May 15, 2017 Author Share Posted May 15, 2017 That already exists in BigBox (Exit, Shutdown, Restart). The ability to Log Off was not an option. I apologize but I am not sure what you mean by "secure mode." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adu Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 I was refering to the mode when you put a Secured pin, so if you don't know it, you can't go in the options. That's what I call secure mode (if my daughter use my Arcade cab, she can't mess up with the settings because it is secured by a pin). But in this mode, you only have exit option, but not shutdown computer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJDave71 Posted May 15, 2017 Author Share Posted May 15, 2017 I made that setting false but I can check a bit later. thank u for that suggestion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJDave71 Posted May 16, 2017 Author Share Posted May 16, 2017 I have that set to not show when it's locked This might be a bug in the plugin Library. Thank u for bring that to my attention. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adu Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 Thanks to you if you can resolve this issue That's the thing I miss most on my setup to have it complete (and secure ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJDave71 Posted May 16, 2017 Author Share Posted May 16, 2017 (edited) Try the attached file it the same file just zipped windows security blocks these files. 1. Right click the SignOut.dll and click on Properties.2. Click on the General tab, check the Unblock box at the bottom, and click/tap on OK.

slashguns04 Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 Does not turn off the machine but goes to the account client screen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJDave71 Posted May 16, 2017 Author Share Posted May 16, 2017 (edited) That is what it's suppose to do. take you back to the main Welcome screen in windows. For example I have three accounts Admin Kids Arcade - Used for Big Box only when I am done with BigBox I click on Sign out and it allows someone else to login Hope that answers your question?

mbiard Posted May 22, 2022 Share Posted May 22, 2022 I needed the Sign Out protected behind the PIN as well, but the plugin attached in this thread wasn't working this way even though the source code did have the "AllowInBigBoxWhenLocked" set to false. I'm not too familiar with C# but I managed to rebuild it (keeping AllowInBigBoxWhenLocked=false) and it started behaving as you would expect.
