I am looking for an auto-shutdown software so that I can shutdown my computer everyday at 8 am (the MTNL unlimited usage expires at this time!!). So please suggest me a good and simple software that'll enable me to do this.

Auto power up and shutdown is a good softeare. You can even use it to turn on your pc at ant time.

U could just create a shutdown shortcut using the 'shutdown -s -t 00' command and use the task scheduler to execute it at the desired time.

Dont use a software... just do this..

make a text file... type in "shutdown -s" and save this as name.bat
now schedule this in task scheduler..

start menu > programs > acessories > system tools > task scheduler

Try Intelligent Shutdown...

This is a shareware, but allows you to use the full functionality.. The only nag is the pop-up asking you to register with the code whenever you start the program.

Download it from:

Using SwitchOff for more than 4 years now.

With only 64kb foot-print, it is the smallest of all and does work well too.

Mr. Devarajan, If you cannot understand the Difference between the names Intelligent Shutdown and Intelligent Wakeup, Please learn.....

@ evildeadregeneration has given the Link for Intelligent Wakeup and I have given the name of another software............. :?: :?: :?:

Think and Make a check Before you post...............
