Shutdown Your PC With a Timer

Simply follow these easy steps and shut down your computer anytime you like.

Method 1

1. Right click on your desktop and create a short cut

2. It will now ask you to “Type the location of the shortcut”

3. Type shutdown -s -t 3600 there. Note that 3600 are seconds means 60secsx60mins= 3600secs.

4. Now to disable the timer. Create another short cut and enter shutdown -a You’re done


Method 2

This one is really simple. All you need to is run the RUN command from Start Menu.

  • Type in the time when you would like your PC to shut down itself. Use the command in this format at 11:35 shutdown -s
  • To disable it run the RUN command again and type shutdown -a

Note: : The timer will set the time in 24hr format which means if u would like to shutdown your PC at 10:30pm, you will need to type at 22:30 shutdown -s
I hope this helps.
