Thread: Make Your Own Windows Shut Down Timer

  1. #1
    AoA! Hi!


    Since I receive such an overwhelming response (Am I being sarcastic here?) to my previous topic (re:Speeding Up Mozilla Firefox). I wish to share another Gem (it's just a trick, so don't get tricked by it).

    Make Your own Windows Shut Down Timer

    Here it goes :

    Step 1.
    Right Click on your desktop and Select "New -> Shortcut".

    Step 2.
    In the box that says "Type the location of the item",
    type in "shutdown -s -t 120" without the quotation marks and click next.

    Note : Exclamation 120 are the amount of seconds before your computer shuts down. i.e.= 2 Min. & ofcourse you can change that time according to your preferences but Always Convert it into Seconds. If u want ur PC to Shutdown after 1 Hour i.e. 60 Mins. Simply multiply it with Seconds (60mins*60Secs=3600secs) So, Now you'll have 2 put 3600 instead of 120 in the above code.

    Step 3.
    Make up a name for the shortcut and you're done.
    You can change the icon by right clicking->properities->change icon-> browse.

    Now when you'll Click that Shortcut your Shutdown Timer Will start Automatically Wink.

    More Info:
    To abort the shutdown timer just create another shortcut and make the "location of the item" to "shutdown -a" without the quotes.

    Enjoy!

    God Bless 'Twisters'!

    Well! Well! Well! This is what I call response! (Almost all the BIG names of DT have replied here) And this time I'm truly overwhelmed!

    Thank You Endurer, Mytonse! You guys are most welcome! (I always like it when you call me Nuttbolt@ Mytonse).


    Indeed Rahen it'll help you. (You don't call me Nutty anymore Rahen *sigh* why? ).


    Usama nice to see you too replied here although I 've no idea why you said 'Am Afraid'? Afraid as in 'Do you think it won't work'? or ' Are you afraid to use it'? Kindly explain.

    God Bless Twisters!
