Follow these steps:
1. Right Click on your desktop, Select New ---> Shortcut
2. A new shortcut dialog box will appear.
3. In the location box, this is how you will enter the details: shutdown.exe is for calling the shutdown executable. –s is the command for shutdown. –f is for performing a forced shutdown. If an application stops responding when shutting down, this command will force shut it. Using this command is not compulsory, but recommended. And next, the –t command is for specifying the time the shutdown will take place. After you put the –t command give a space and then enter the time in seconds. So in the above example, the computer will be shut down in 6 hours. Let’s put the whole command in one line: shutdown.exe -s -f -t seconds
"SEE THIS EXAMPLE: (shutdown.exe -s -f -t 3600) your computer will automatically shutdown after 1 hour"
4. Click next and the shortcut will be created on the desktop. Give it a name and click it whenever you wish to initiate an automatic shutdown. If you want to change the time, right click on the shortcut, select properties and change the time from the dialog that opens.
5. Enjoy!
