Here is a few methods on how to manipulate auto shutdown.


METHOD 1 :
Step 1:

Right click on your desktop and choose New=shortcuts.

Step 2:

In the box that says Type the location of the shortcut,
type in shutdown -s -t 3600&8243; without the quotation marks and click next.

Note: 3600 are the amount of seconds before your computer shuts down. So , 60secs*60mins=3600secs.

Step 3:

Make up a name for the shortcut and youre done.
You can change the icon by right clicking=properities=change icon=browse.

To abort

To make an abort key to stop the shutdown timer just create another shortcut and make
the location of the shortcut to shutdown -a without the quotes.


METHOD 2
start=Run

Type Code: at 11:35 shutdown -s

Take note: All time are in 24hr format, meaning if you would like to shutdown at 9:30pm, then you should type at 21:30 shutdown -s


METHOD 3
you can use a batch for that as well it makes it easier to use
just run the batch and enter the time you want it to shutdown

Create shutdown.bat

Use the Code below:

@echo off
title Scheduled Shutdown Batch Example by chacha1234
color A
echo Enter Time To Shutdown (example 19:30)
set /p stime=
cls
at %stime% shutdown -s -t 00&8243; null
echo Your PC Will Auto Shutdown At %stime%
echo Press Any Key To Exit
pause null
exit
