What is the best way to find out the last reboot and shutdown times of a windows 10 computer? I noticed that if I type systeminfo into the cli i get the last boot time but it doesn't register if the user shuts down only if they restarted. Is there a good way to show both?
Thanks,

Hi Eddiesa.
You have to look for the event ID 1074 in the "System" log of the Windows Event Viewer: that event is associated with the system's shutdown; also check for the event ID 6006, which indicates that the Event log service was stopped (one of the latest operations performed by the OS before shutting down the PC) and event ID 6008 (unexpected shutdown).
On the other side, you can loom for the event IDs 6005 (starting of the Event log service) and/or 6009 (logged at each system's startup).
You can also read the Microsoft Knowledge Base article 196452 for a brief explanation of the Windows startup/shutdown events.
Bye.
