How can I shut down the PC after specified amount of time?
Problem
How would you go about turning you computer after a specified amount of time? I listen music before I go to sleep and would like to be able to shutdown my computer after a specified amount of time. After ½ an hour say. It would be cool if you could connect a desktop shortcut to a task in scheduler so you click the shortcut and ½ an hour later it shuts down.

Fix for: How can I shut down the PC after specified amount of time?
Create a batch file, and put this code in it after the line: The computer will shutdown 30 minutes (1800 seconds) after running the batch file. To cancel a shutdown initiated by that batch file, you can go to Start → Run and type: Or put that in its own separate batch file, then run it to cancel a shutdown.
