Auto - shutdown at desired time

1. Right click on your desktop and choose "New=>shortcuts".

2. In the box that says "Type the location of the shortcut",
type in "shutdown -s -t 3600" without the quotation marks and click next.
Note: 3600 are the amount of seconds before your computer shuts down.
So , 60secs*60mins=3600secs.

3. Make up a name for the shortcut and you're done.
You can change the icon by right clicking=>properities=>change icon=>browse

To make an abort key to stop the shutdown timer just create another shortcut
and make the "location of the shortcut" to " shutdown -a" without the quotes.
