  "24hr time only"

  April 22, 2010  |  

  Version: Shutdown Timer (64-bit) 2.5.0.15

  Pros

  it does not seem to be spyware.

  Cons

  UI should be simpler make sense, use standard English, have a 12hr display option, and should not accept invalid characters for time input.
  It is a complex, confusing and ineffective approach to a simple task.

  Summary

  I had to experiment just to understand the UI. It uses the following sentence to prompt for input:
  
  When the system time is [ ] Now
  in [ ] minutes
  __ immediately
  
  The "by Date" option is even worse:
  When todays date is [ ]
  at time [ ]
  in [ ] minutes
  _ Immediately
  
  it accepts invalid input, like letters or punctuation in the time input field, without returning an error or prompt..
  
  These are all major deficiencies in my view.

  I really like the CPU Temperature idea, it's a very nice idea.

  Cons

  I can't really think of any at this moment.

  Summary

  A Feature Full Shutdown Timer which has the possibilites to do a lot more than Shutdown your system under a certain amount of time. If you haven't tried this FREE software yet then do so right away, I highly recommend it!
