    Yes you can do it easily.

    Open Task Manager ---> File ---> New Task(Run...)

    And type the following command exactly as it is!

    shutdown -s -f -m -t 60

    Explanation:

    -s will shutdown your computer
    -f will force the running programmes to shutdown
    -t timmer settings (60 means 60 seconds, calculate the hours in seconds and put it here)

    Hope this will help you.

    Does any of the listed programs prompt some warning before shutting down?

    Yes! The command which I gave in my previous post above, does give a warning. It starts the countdown.

    You can abort the shutdown by typing:


    shutdown -a
    This will cancel the shutdown.

    AMP Winoff does the job just fine. You can schedule and also shut off, when it detects no transaction on your data ports..!

    You can try Winutilities
    It is a tuneup software and has a lot of other system utilities including registry cleaning, auto shutdown( or restart and log off), registry backup and restore, file protection etc.

    Thumbs up Re: Software for automatic Shutdown

    Simply put in
    Code:
    shutdown.exe -s -t 10800
    and save it as BAT file and copy its path to HKLM -> Software -> Microsoft -> Windows -> CurrentVersion -> Run -> New String value
    Hope you know how to handle registry.

    Drawback -> It will shutdown computer every 3 hours after you start (unless you work for less than 3 hours during day. At night it's just fine according to your timings).

    Use windows task scheduler to execute C:\Windows\System32\shutdown.exe -s and set the time u want it to execute..

    it gives notification a minute ahead of set time.
