Win7 Tips: How to set up automatic shutdown?

There may be many Win7 users who don't know how to set the system to automatically shut down. If our computer has tasks that can be done automatically without human intervention, and it takes a long time, then setting up automatic shutdown is very useful. Here to provide you with two commonly used methods to set up Windows7 automatic shutdown, convenient for everyone to use.

First, use the command

1, set a specific time to shut down

Suppose we set the system to close at 11 o'clock, press “ Windows logo key + R & rdquo;, in In the pop-up "Run" window, type "“at 23:00 shutdown -s”, and press the Enter key. One minute before the system is shut down, a reminder window will pop up. Note: The above command contains 3 spaces without quotes. Entering commands in the command window will also achieve the same effect. When you use this command, the planning service must be running.

Command Details:

•“at”Commands are scheduled to run commands and programs on specific dates and times

•“23:00” The time of the command. The format is 24-hour system

•“shutdown” For a command built into the system, we can shut down, restart, etc. with the parameters of it

• “-s&rdquo ; is a parameter of the “shutdown” command, running “shutdown -s” represents the operation of "shut down the computer". Common parameters are also “-a”“-t”“-f” etc.

▼Run renderings (below command input example, pop-up window example; command input “run&rdquo The window will close automatically and the two windows will not appear at the same time).

2, set the shutdown after a period of time

Set the system to close after a period of time, we will use a new parameter of the “shutdown” command<;t”. This parameter specifies that the system shuts down after a certain period of time, in seconds (s).

Here we set the system to close after half an hour. The command to enter is: <;shutdown -s -t 1800”, the above command contains 3 spaces, no quotes. After the operation, a reminder window will pop up in the lower right corner of the system task bar.

▼ Run the effect diagram (the above is the command input example, the following is an example of the pop-up window; after the command is entered, the “Run” window will be closed automatically, and the two windows will not appear at the same time).

Each of these operations will generate a separate scheduled task, which we can view with the Soft Media Optimization Master, in the "Startup Items" tab of the "Scheduled Tasks". For example, we ran a command to set a specific time to shut down. In the "Software Name" column, a project will be added that is displayed as “At1 Windows shutdown and annotation tool”.
