Hello,

How can we shutdown our system by setting a shutdown time.

For example if we want to shutdown my computer at 5.50pm how can we do it automatically.

Is it need any extra software. If yes please send me a good link for that.

Thank you......

that's simple command run by run command

shutdown -s -t 20000
-s for shutdown
-r for restart
-t for time


To cancel, run the following command :
shutdown -a
.
the max time for shutdown is 600 (10min)

larry is right, no upper limit on XP's shutdown. Vista's shutdown's limit is 10 minutes (600), but you can move the shutdown.exe executable from XP to Vista, and then use it unfettered with no upper time limit.
Thanks 4 the command
thats simple command run by run command
"shutdown -s -t 30000"

-s for shutdown

Create a batch file (e.g. shutdown_now.cmd) - (180 secs = 3 minutes)

:: Shutdown batch file. Designed to be run from Scheduled tasks at 17:50
@Shutdown -s -t 180 -c "Shutting down computer as it is 17:50"


Then create a scheduled task to run at 17:50 daily and call the shutdown_now.cmd script that you've just created.
Go to start, all programs, accessories, system tools, task scheduler. Click, create basic task. Name it, next. When, next. To the right of start, input 5:50 pm, click wanted options, next. Start a program, next. Under program, shutdown. Under add arguments, -s -f -t 0, next. Finish.
