How to Auto Shutdown PC, Restart, Hybrid Shutdown, Hibernate, Sleep, Lock, and Log Off:

Step 2: Let’s say, you want to automatically lock your PC at any specific time, then click the “Lock” option on the popup menu. After that, the timer window will appear where you can set the timer for locking your PC automatically. There will be 3 different timer options named In, At, and Limit for performing the action in different ways.

Step 3: If you want to lock your PC at any particular time, then you should choose the option “At” as it will perform the task at the exact time you’ve set. The “In” option allows you to set the timer for locking your PC after a specific time period has passed or elapsed. Whereas, using the “Limit” option you can set the timer to lock your PC after you have been using it for a certain time interval.

Step 4: As soon as you’re done setting the timer, hit the “Start” button. It will automatically run and execute the action (lock your PC) as per the condition and time set by you. It also notifies you 30 seconds before performing any automated action with a small prompt window at the center of the screen. So, you can either let this tool perform the task or cancel the task to continue using your PC.

Step 7: Additionally, you can set a password to protect the automated actions and enable the option “Forced” to perform the assigned action without notifying you. You can enable these options from the tool settings.
