How to Create a Schedule Shutdown in Windows 10 It was really frustrating when you wait for your download to finish and so you turned off your computer. People often ask me is there any method so that we can create a schedule shutdown in windows 10 or any other versions of windows. Yes, you can create a schedule shutdown in windows 10. Windows has an inbuilt option of task scheduler through which you can perform various tasks including scheduled shutdown. In this post I will show you how to create a schedule shutdown in windows 10 of your computer. I am doing this with Windows 10 but you can also perform the same steps for Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8 and of course With Windows 10 . STEP 1 >> Open the App "Task Scheduler": For this you need to go to your windows start menu and search Task scheduler, on Task Scheduler icon Right Click with your mouse and click run as administrator (See in image below), It will take you to task scheduler app. You can also go to Task Scheduler by navigating >>Control Panel>All Control Panel Items>Administrative Tools >Task Scheduler The Task Scheduler App will look like this >> (See below Image) STEP 2 >> Create Basic Task: In Task Scheduler App Go to Action Menu (In top Left) and click it create basic task. You will get another pop-up window of Create Basic Task Wizard. >> STEP 3 >> Define Name : In Create Basic Wizard You first have to write the Name of the Task so that you can easily remember this task in future. In my case I have named it "Auto shutdown". You can also describe the work of this task in detail in the description box given below. After filling these details >> Click Next >> STEP 4 >>Trigger the Task : When you click Next you will directed to Trigger page in which the app will ask you at what time you want to perform this and also the frequency of the task means that do you want to perform this task for only once or once in a month or daily or weekly you should check on the radio button against your desired. In this case we will choose daily. Then Simply Click Next >> STEP 5 > Set the time : On the Next Screen you will see the time schedule window in which you have to setup the date and time to start your task Here You can also set the the recurring period for the task. After entering the date and time and recurring period Click on Next button. This will guide you to the next screen which is Action Screen. STEP 6 Action: In the Action Screen App will ask you about the Action you want to perform on the task. From below screen shot you can see the three options which are Start the Program; Send and email (deprecated) & Display a Message. Right you don't have to bother for the 2nd and 3rd Option and you only need to check the Start a program radio button (since we are creating the scheduled Shut Down Task) and click Next. This will guide to the start a program window. STEP 7 >> Start a program : In this Window you will see Script Field Option. In this field you have to define the executable file of window which process the shutdown action for this you have to go to your system 32 folder. For this you need to click on Browse button then go to windows folder which you will find in Drive C (by default) Click on windows folder and find the System 32 Folder. Then Click to open this folder and find the file shutdown.exe or you can also write shutdown.exe in search bar to find the this file. Click on this file to select & click open. Now in the argument field write "/s" and click next. And that's all you have successfully created the this task. And finally click on finish to complete this task.

There are many auto shutdown programs that I have used in the past. Many were lackluster because those would only work about 1/2 to 3/4th of the time. A program that I have came across that works very well is the Airytec Switch Off program. A very small download of 70 kb for the 32 bit version, airytec switch-off has a variety of functional procedures. This small but multifaceted program, Airytec Switch Off runs in the task manager in the background at 544K memory, has different schedule settings such as; running at startup, running at log on, a daily feature, a weekly feature, an at once only feature, a countdown feature, and others. There are the performance tasks like shutdown, restart, sleep, hibernate, running predefined scripts, connecting to the windows calculator, that can run at varying times. The application can even force close programs that are open before executing its function and can run whether users are logged on or not logged on. This program can also be downloaded with many language files for the appropriate user. Versatility is probably one of the best attributes with its low download size, many worthwhile functions, and its near-perfect execution methods. Since using this program, I have been able to download and upload numerous files on a schedule and not be waiting for the files to finish to shutdown the computer because the Airytec Switch Off program provided the auto shutdown service without hesitation. You can set it and forget it.
