{
    Process.Start("shutdown", cmd);

Answer 1

Try this:

To ShutDown : shutdown -s

To Restart : shutdown -r

To Logoff : shutdown -l

To Hibernate :%windir%\system32\rundll32.exe PowrProf.dll,SetSuspendState

To Lock : Rundll32.exe User32.dll,LockWorkStation

To Sleep : rundll32.exe powrprof.dll,SetSuspendState 0,1,0

Note:While using cmd for Sleep Need to off Hibernation else sys will be hibernated.
