Killing Me Softly

Sometimes there are things that keep you from shutting down your computer. Whether it’s an important update, a playlist that helps you sleep or a large download, Killing Me Softly is an app that can help close your computer even if you’re not there.

The software comes with a simple, small interface that crowds together all the options in the same window. Thus, Killing Me Softly can shut down, restart or log off your system.

In order for this to happen you must set a timer by selecting the desired value from a drop-down menu. You can opt for intervals starting at 1 minute and going up to five hours. To start the countdown all you need to do is click the “Run” button on the interface.

Further options include shutting down all the active programs by force and saving all data beforehand. You can also have the app stay on top of other software and hide the program in the system tray until it has performed the required task.

The fact of the matter is that Killing Me Softly is a nice tool with an intuitive interface. Setting it up is very easy and can be done by users of all levels of experience.

An added bonus is the fact that the software is quite light on your computer resources as it barely uses any of your CPU. Your system should run as good as ever, even if the timer is active.
