Turning off your computer doesn’t take more than a couple of seconds, but you might want it to do so automatically after it finishes a particular task. If the tool in use isn’t fitted with an automatic shutdown function, then you can surely rely on specialized applications like Shutdown.

The application comes in a pretty lightweight package and doesn’t even require installation to function. This means that it’s good to go from the moment download is done, and you can even copy it to a USB flash drive in case you work on different computers and want to have access to it regardless of the machine you’re using.

It sports a clean layout, with features wrapped around a classic window frame. Effort on your behalf is narrowed down to specifying the hour and minute at which the computer to power off. Hitting OK confirms changes and activates the tracker, with the application minimizing to the tray area. It’s possible to cancel the task by closing the program.

The window comes with several actions and the default one is to shut down your computer. On the other hand, you can have it simply suspended, restarted, or just cut off Internet and network connections. Selecting one of the available options cancels the shutdown operation.

Unfortunately, it can’t be set to monitor particular programs or tasks, or even show a warning before an action is about to be triggered to give you a heads-up in order to save your data. A neat trick is to assign a shortcut to its shortcut through the Properties panel just to be able to launch it regardless of your explorer location.

Bottom line is that you might not be around to shut down your computer whenever its job is done for the day. On the bright side of things, Shutdown offers a fast and reliable method of powering off your machine, restart, or suspend it.
