Let's suppose you would like to download a large file over night and you want your computer to shut down when the download is complete. Or you would like to fall asleep while listening to your favorite music and, again, you want your computer to shut down by itself after some time. The Windows operating system features some options for turning off the display or the hard disks after a specified amount of time but not for turning off the computer. So, the only solution left would be using a third party application that can automatically turn off your PC. Such a program is AgataSoft ShutDown Pro. As the name clearly suggests, the program can turn off the PC after a certain amount of time or when certain conditions are met. But it can also restart the system or log off.

The program is very simple to install and supports all versions of the Windows operating system. It takes up little hard disk space and low system resources.

The interface of AgataSoft ShutDown Pro is organized in various tabs. All the options are placed where they should, so quickly finding them shouldn't be a problem. AgataSoft ShutDown Pro allows turning off or restarting the computer after a certain period of time, at a certain hour or when the CPU usage is low. Besides that, the program allows turning off or restarting any computer in a network, just by entering its password. This can save a lot of time and effort in case the user needs to turn off a lot of computers in a large network.

All the scheduled tasks are displayed in a list and each of them can be removed or edited. Furthermore, the program displays in its status bar when the next task performs and also the CPU usage in real time. Advanced users can take advantage of the options window, which allows thorough configuration of the program. As such, one can use shortcut keys for turning off, restarting or putting the computer into standby.

The interface features some options for easily turning off the computer after 10, 20, 30 minutes and so on.

Pros

It features a lot of settings for automatically turning off or restarting the computer. Besides that, the program allows turning off any network computer just by typing its password. Furthermore, the software features a lot of options for configuring its functionality, like setting shortcut keys for turning off or restarting the computer.

Cons

Beginners might get confused when running the program for the first time, because it features a lot of options. AgataSoft ShutDown Pro is the perfect software for automatically turning off the computer using a variety of settings.
