Yes.

For Startup, search for KIOSK Mode here in the forum.

For Shutdown:

- create a `Start Process` Action linked to a BAT file containing a shutdown command.
- Fire the action on the Event for `Application Ending`.

The shutdown command in a BAT file would be something like this:

```auto
shutdown.exe /s /t 00

```
