Hi Guys! Welcome ……….
There are some features in windows ,which actually some people don’t know even exist,like this one Setting automatic shutdown in Windows.
This feature is very useful when we already started any big task,which is half completed and we have to leave our home/office.Leaving Desktop/Laptop open even after task is completed will not only comsume power but also if there will be a sudden power cut,Desktop will be turned off suddenly which isn’t good for Windows OS.
So I have a solution for you.
Today I brought you a method by which you can easily set automatic shutdown on your windows 10.
I didn’t checked on 8.1,8,7 but I think it should work.
Way 1: Set auto shutdown via Run.
