A simple program that lets you log off Windows programmatically using C#, with the P/Invoke’s ExitWindowsEx method.

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.IO;
using System.Linq;
using System.Runtime.InteropServices;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;

namespace ConsoleApplication1
{  
    class Program
    {
        
        static extern bool ExitWindowsEx(uint uFlags, uint dwReason);

        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            ExitWindowsEx(0, 0);
        }
    }
}
