Set a timer for windows shutdown and restart from command line with out using any software.

This may be help to you if have the habit of listening to songs and sleeping or if you are planning to download some thing. open notepad and type
“shutdown -s -t ”
Save the file as “.bat” and a batch file is created
for shutting down…this works for me…i sleep with a wait for 10 mins during which songs play…after that pc shuts down automatically…no tension of shutdown
to restart the pc command is
“shutdown -r -t ”
Type shutdown /help in cmd for more options on this shutdown command

You can do this without batch file also

1. Go to Start>run>
2. Type cmd
3. Then type shutdown -s -t XXXX (XXXX is time in seconds)

Example:

shutdown -s -t 3600 (Shut down time will be set to 1 hour)
