I need a set of commands that asks "Are you sure" and if yes, runs a DOS command and if no exits. I'd like the "Are you sure?" to default "n". My test, non-working program is. @echo off
echo Are you sure? (y/n)
set /p shutdown=(n)
if %shutdown==y
shutdown -s -f -m \\computername

Replace your IF statement with this:
if "%shutdown%"=="y" shutdown -s -f -m \\computername
