how to shutdown laptop with windows 10 timer
This time I will give tips on how to set auto shut down win 10 with timer, sometimes we often forget to turn off the laptop or pc, either because we work late at night until we go to sleep or just in a hurry to go out so that the laptop or pc is only left behind, this kind of behavior is not good, not only about the health of our computers but also our electricity bills.
That's why I wrote this tutorial how to setting auto shutdown windows 10 with timer here, there will be 3 ways to make a timer that can turn off our laptop or pc starting from the easiest and simplest to the slightly complicated but more flexible.
Alright, let's start with the first method using Windows Run
- Windows run
There are 2 ways to open windows run, the first is the Windows + R shortcut, the second is to look for it at start and then type run as shown below
After the windows application opens then you paste (box1) shutdown -s -t 3600 then you click OK (box 2) as shown below
The explanation of the code above is that the laptop or pc will be turned off within 1 hour. For a more detailed explanation of the code, please see the image below
As shown above -s(box1) is a command to turn off the computer while -t(box3) is a code that determines when the laptop is turned off in seconds which can be set up to 315360000 seconds(10 years),
besides that, there is also another important code that is -a(box2) which we can use to turn off this win 10 auto shutdown.
- CMD
Second, using CMD shutdown timer is basically almost similar to using windows run if you want to know more about the code that can be used for the shutdown command, you can write shutdown and then click enter as shown above.
Then you just need to use the same command as above shutdown -s -t 3600, then write down when the computer was turned off in seconds (box1) then click enter, then a notification (box2) will appear as shown below
- Task sheduler
The last one uses the task scheduler, task schedule is a default application from windows that is in several versions of windows and even windows xp it can be use to make win 10 schedule shutdown.
to use it you just need to look for it in the start or click the windows keyboard and then write Task scheduler then open it or double click as shown below.
After the application is open, then click create basic task (box1) so that a new display appears as shown below
Next you have to fill in the name of the task (box2) so that the next button appears (box4) while the description (box3) can be left blank or filled in.
As you can see from the picture above, there are 3 options that we have to fill in trigger(box5), action(box6) and finish(box7).
1. Trigger
After we give the task name and click next the trigger option will appear as shown below
This time I will choose one time(box1) after that we click next(box2) the display will change and have several options as shown below, each display will be different every time we choose the type of trigger above
If one time is selected, the available option is when the task will start, meaning when the shutdown process will start after we are done then click next the second option will appear, that is
2.Action
There are 3 action options here, we choose to run the program (box1) then click next then the display will change as shown below
After the display appears as above, the first thing we have to do is click browse(box1) then look for the shutdown program(box2), you can look for it in C/Windows/System32. (box3) as shown above then click open(box4).
Next, you enter -s into the argument(box1) in the image above for other arguments, you can see it using CMD like the 2nd method, then click next(box2).
3.Finish
The last stage is to make sure when the shutdown program will start (box1) then you click finish (box2) as shown below
OK, here's the process of the third method, you can practice all of the above methods and decide which one you like more
