If you want to automatically shut down your computer, say after 30 minutes, using Run to create the schedule would be the best and quickest way.

  • Press the Win + R keys to open the Run dialog box.
  • Type in the following command into the box and hit Enter: shutdown -s -t 1800
  • Make sure to replace 1800 seconds with your own time.

Your computer will turn off when the specified time in second has elapsed.
