AutoShutdown

AutoShutdown is a lightweight software program whose purpose is to help you schedule your computer to automatically shut down.

Take advantage of its portability status

The application is portable and can be dropped on pen drives or other portable devices. In addition, you may open it without administrative privileges.
You can get access to the main window by running the executable file because you do not have to follow the steps included in an installation process. Since it does not populate your Windows registry with extra entries and leave other configuration files on the host PC, you may get rid of it via a quick deletion task of the file that you have grabbed from the Internet.

Set up automatic shutdown actions

AutoShutdown sports a clean and simple interface that embeds all configuration settings into a single panel. A help manual is not comprised in the package, but you can manage to tweak the entire process on your own because the dedicated parameters look easy to work with.
You can make the utility automatically shut down the computer on a certain date that can be picked from the built-in calendar and at specific time (in hours, minutes, and seconds). In addition, you are allowed to schedule a shutdown session after a user-defined number of minutes.
A countdown timer is revealed directly in the main window for helping you get an idea about the remaining time until a shutdown session is activated. You may also disable the timer in case you change your mind, turn off the monitor, and run the utility at Windows startup.
Tests have pointed out that AutoShutdown carries out a job quickly and without errors. It does not eat up a lot of CPU and memory resources so the overall performance of the computer is not affected.

Final thoughts

To sum things up, AutoShutdown helps you configure automatic shutdown sessions on the fly, and can be tweaked by less experienced users and professionals alike.
