Submitted By: Vikash Kumar Singh
SAP ID: 590014667

📜 Project Description:

The System Control Application is a Python-based GUI tool designed to provide easy access to system shutdown and restart functions. Built using Tkinter, this application allows users to quickly shut down or restart their computer with a single click, supporting Windows, Linux, and macOS systems.

This tool is aimed at improving convenience and simplifying system management tasks.

✨ Key Features:

Shutdown System: Allows users to shut down the system instantly with a click of the button.
Restart System: Provides the ability to restart the system with a simple button press.
Cross-Platform Support: The application works on multiple platforms, including Windows, Linux, and macOS.
Simple GUI: Built with Tkinter, the application features an intuitive and easy-to-use graphical interface.

🚀 How to Use:

Run the Application: To start the application, open a terminal or command prompt and run the Python file:
```
python SystemControl.py
```
Use the Shutdown Button: Click the Shutdown button to immediately shut down your system.
Use the Restart Button: Click the Restart button to restart your system.

Note: You may need to grant administrator or root permissions, especially on Linux/macOS, for the shutdown/restart commands to execute.

🛠 Libraries Used:

Tkinter: Used to create the graphical user interface (GUI).
os: Provides the functionality to interact with the operating system, allowing shutdown and restart operations.
platform: Used to detect the operating system and execute the appropriate shutdown/restart commands based on the platform.

💡 Additional Notes:

This application uses os.system() to run shutdown or restart commands, so ensure you have the necessary permissions to perform these actions, especially on Linux or macOS systems.
The app is designed to work across different operating systems by checking the platform and issuing the corresponding shutdown or restart command.
On Linux/macOS, the app may require sudo privileges to execute the shutdown/restart operations.
