What's the best way to shut down the computer from a C# program?
I've found a few methods that work - I'll post them below - but none of them are very elegant. I'm looking for something that's simpler and natively .net.

Works starting with windows XP, not available in win 2000 or lower:
This is the quickest way to do it:
Process.Start("shutdown","/s /t 0");
Otherwise use P/Invoke or WMI like others have said.
Edit: how to avoid creating a window
var psi = new ProcessStartInfo("shutdown","/s /t 0");
psi.CreateNoWindow = true;
psi.UseShellExecute = false;
Process.Start(psi);
