Editor's review for Vista Shutdown Timer

If you are one of the many who use their computer as a complete entertainment system, you have no doubt been in situations where you’d like your system to automatically shut down or go to sleep after a certain amount of time. This is exactly what Vista Shutdown Timer was designed to do.

Vista Shutdown Timer is far from an ordinary shutdown timer. It can be programmed to perform other tasks as well. The most important of these is probably the ability to wake up after a provided time interval or at a specified date and time. Now you can set your PC to go to sleep after say 90 minutes and wake up seven hours later. With proper settings, you won’t ever need to manually shut down your system again.

As you might expect, the Vista Shutdown Timer is a tiny program, a mere 244 K in size. It comes with a complete set of command-line parameters that allow you to manually set the timer, as well as pause it if necessary. The newest version of the timer also has a revamped graphical interface that makes changing settings a snap. Many screenshots are available on the Vista Shutdown Timer website that serve to illustrate operation of the program in more detail.

Whether you want to use it as a sleep timer only or would like to schedule each and every shutdown and wakeup, Vista Shutdown Timer lets you do it all. The program is frequently updated whenever warranted to fix bugs and add features.

As the name implies, Vista Shutdown Timer was primarily designed for Windows Vista, but it also works under Windows 7. Just give it a try and you will not regret.
