I can't view the picture... is there something I need installed on my machine ?
-
A graphical browser?
It says: Error 0, operation completed successfully.

If mixed metaphors were illegal, I'd be having an indigestion.

It basically says "Error 0, this operation completed sucessfully"
(BTW: It didn't!)

You might be a redneck if you keep a small, working image beside a large, non-working image.
-
You downloaded an adware/spyware-supported program that does the exact same thing as "shutdown -i"?
That might be TRWTF™.

In my defense, I'm on a work computer (don't have access to cmd) and I didn't pay for anything! (My work does not involve development, just customer services!)

[/url]There's a bunch of WTFs right in that shutdown dialog!
- "Power Failure: Cord Unplugged" -- Hey guys, I pulled the plug on the computer so it's going to shut off about 30 seconds ago. Or perhaps, hey guys, I'm about to pull the plug......NOW!
- "Hardware: Installation (Unplanned)" -- I think I'm going to install a modem right NOW!
- "Loss of Network Connectivity (Unplanned)" -- what if I planned to lose connectivity? How would I shut down remotely anyways? In fact, why is that a reason for shutting down, unless you're in the mood for porn?

Or remotely shutting down because of loss of network connection...
-
Stupid edit timeout:
Edit1: It does say "reasons on this pc". It might not accept loss of network connectivity as a reason if you're doing a remote shutdown.
Edit2: To be fair, it does list "Hardware Installation (Unplanned)" as expected and not unexpected in the type column.
Edit3: Some of these reasons are only there for "shutdown"'s "document the reason for an unexpected shutdown of a computer" function, e.g. the "power loss (cord unplugged)" one. Sorry to spoil your fun.

I do believe it asks you for those reasons after an improper shutdown, but anyways:
1. UPS
2. It happens
3. Could be loss of WAN connection by some faulty driver (i.e. fixable by a reset)
-
But see, that's no fun. It's only good if you're giving the reasons before a remote shutdown.
