Set the timer and activate it

PowerOff Timer comes with a simple interface that lets you choose the action and the time until execution. Also, after you set the timer, don't forget to click on Activate, as the computer won't power off otherwise.
In addition, the tool can be sent to the tray menu, and from there, you can check quickly check its activation status, by hovering the mouse over the icon.

You can also restart, or put your PC in sleep mode

Besides the Shutdown mode, the app provides two more functions: Hibernate and Restart. All three functions were tested, and it was noticed that each time the timer reaches zero, a one-minute prompt pops up and then the computer powers off, restarts, or enters sleep mode. You can use that one-minute window to cancel the process in case you'd set the app by mistake or changed your mind.

Quick and reliable application
