Magic Timed Shutdown

Magic Timed Shutdown is a simple to use program designed to automate the system shutdown and block the users’ access to certain applications, processes or websites. The software is suitable for parenting control, since it allows you to restrict the user’s access to the computer between the specified hours.

Automate computer shutdown

Magic Timed Shutdown allows you to define, then enable a series of rules regarding the automatic computer power off. These rules include shutdown the computer every day at a certain time, or shut it down at the end of a countdown. Alternatively, you may set the software to power off your station when the PC’s uptime sums a specified number of hours or it is idle for a number of minutes.
A bar at the bottom of the window indicates the system’s idle time, uptime, current download speed and upload speed. In other words, it monitors the computer’s status, in order to determine the trigger for one of the enabled rules. When the indicator value matches the rule, the software automatically shuts down the PC.
