I am looking for an API to logoff current user on remote computer. Two functions ExitWindows and InitiateSystemShutdown seem not exactly what I want. The first one doesn't accept computer name, the second one doesn't have logoff option.is it possible to logoff current user on remote computer ?. Can someone tell me how to achieve this in a C++ program?

I knew that you want to shutdown system by using exitwindows function. However, if you want to shut down the remote system in your own process, you need to use the exitwindowsEX function and write a program that specifies the process ID. The relevant function references are as follows： https://learn.microsoft.com/zh-cn/windows/win32/shutdown/how-to-shut-down-the-system The following are specific codes:

#pragma region  
#include<windows.h>
#pragma warning(disable:4996)
BOOL ReSetWindows(DWORD dwFlags, BOOL bForce)
{ 
    if (dwFlags != EWX_LOGOFF && dwFlags != EWX_REBOOT && dwFlags != EWX_SHUTDOWN)
        return FALSE;
    
    OSVERSIONINFO osvi = { 0 };
    osvi.dwOSVersionInfoSize = sizeof(OSVERSIONINFO);
    if (!GetVersionEx(&osvi))
    {
        return FALSE;
    }
    
    if (osvi.dwPlatformId == VER_PLATFORM_WIN32_NT)
    {
        //EnableShutDownPriv();  
    }
   
    dwFlags |= (bForce != FALSE) ? EWX_FORCE : EWX_FORCEIFHUNG;
     
    return ExitWindowsEx(dwFlags, 0);
}
int main()
{
    ReSetWindows(EWX_LOGOFF, false);//logoff
    //ReSetWindows(EWX_REBOOT, true);//restart
   //ReSetWindows(EWX_SHUTDOWN, true);//shutdown
}
