Probably you often had to leave a running computer for a longer period, when you for example downloaded files, recorded a DVD or made long calculations. Later you have to remember to turn it off, sometimes  you forget about it or you must ask someone for a favor.

Able Search Manager can automatically shut down your computer at a specific time, when downloading from the Internet finishes or when other programs end their work.

To schedule an automatic shutdown of your computer, click shutdown computer.
automatic computer shutdown


Check Turn off Windows system and select a type:
Turn Off - all programs are closed, and the computer is completely off.

Hibernate - Windows goes into hibernation - completely turns off your computer. However, after restart, all programs will work in the same state, as just before hibernation. During hibernation you can safely power off your computer.

Standby - Windows suspends the operation of programs and turns off the monitor, but the computer still works, taking less energy. Restart takes only a few seconds, much faster than hibernation. During standby, the computer cannot be powered off, since all the data of running programs will be lost.

Log Off - current Windows user is logged out and running programs are closed.

Restart - all programs are closed and the computer restarted.

Some options are not available on some computers - for example, standby depends on your hardware - motherboard type and functions that it offers.

Then select the moment when the computer should be shut down:
when all downloads will be finished by Able Search Manager,

at specific time - determine the date and time,

when processor usage will be below X % for more than Y minutes. This option allows you to turn off the computer, when other programs finish their work. Below you can watch the current CPU usage in percents. When you for example compress a large number of files with 7-ZIP program, look at the CPU usage. When 7-ZIP finishes, the CPU usage drops to about 3-5%. Able Search Manager can detect that file compression has finished and turn off the computer.

Warning will be shown 1 minute before - Able Search Manager will show a warning one minute before shutting down your computer, so you may cancel it.

To remind you of a scheduled shutdown, the system tray icon appears shutdown computer. When you click it, you can change options or cancel the automatic shutdown.
