Finish<\/strong>\u201d to complete the task creation.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Once this task is created, you will get a notification at the time you\u2019ve scheduled the task for, suggesting that your Windows 10 PC will shut down after the specified time. We will recommend you to set the number of seconds in the 7th step, so that you have\u00a0some time to save your ongoing tasks before your Windows 10 PC automatically shuts down.<\/p>\n
Once the task is created, you can go to\u00a0<\/strong>Task Scheduler->Task Scheduler Library<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0right-click on the task<\/strong>\u00a0you\u2019ve created and select \u201cProperties<\/strong> \u201c. Here, you can\u00a0play around with various security options, conditions, history and more.\u00a0You can also choose to\u00a0run, end, delete or disable the task from the right-click menu.<\/p>\n
METHOD 2:<\/label>Auto Shutdown\u00a0via Run or Command Prompt<\/span><\/strong><\/h4>\nIf you don\u2019t want to schedule\u00a0auto shutdown for daily and you want it only for this one-time use, you can use Run or Command Prompt or even Power Shell to set a specific time after which the Windows 10 PC will shut down. Here\u2019s how to do it:<\/p>\n
Run<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\nOpen Run on Windows 10 with the key combo\u00a0Win+R<\/strong>.\u00a0In Run, type\u00a0\u201cshutdown -s -t 1800<\/strong>\u201c, with 1800 (30 minutes) obviously being the number of seconds after which the PC will shut down. Click on \u201cOk\u201d, after which you will\u00a0get a notification saying \u201cWindows will shut down in 30 minutes\u201d.<\/p>\n
Command Prompt<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\nYou can just open up Command Prompt or Power Shell and run the same command \u201cshutdown -s -t 1800<\/strong>\u201d to auto shutdown Windows 10 PC.<\/p>\n
Note<\/u><\/strong>: You can replace \u201c-s\u201d with \u201c-r\u201d in all the shutdown commands to\u00a0auto restart your Windows 10 PC.<\/p>\nReady to automatically shutdown\u00a0your Windows 10 PC at a scheduled time?<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n
If you are looking to\u00a0schedule shutdown your Windows 10 PC just for the time being, you can use the second method, as it\u2019s pretty simple. However, if you are looking for an auto shutdown solution for a long term, you should use the first method, which is elaborate\u00a0and offers a excess of options. So, try both the methods out and choose the one that suits you better.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
