Editors’ Review

Although most of its functions are already present in Windows, Volt helps automate shutdown and hibernate functions. Volt's dull dialog interface is novice-friendly. All controls are easy to find and execute. After a user-specified time, Volt can automatically execute shutdown or hibernate commands.

The included scheduling feature is easy to set and also controls shutdown and hibernation. An unusual feature allows Volt to activate your system after a user-set delay. The program's simple log file helps users monitor all actions. Laptop users will appreciate the battery status tab. Although advanced and savvy users may find the program's functions already available, novices will warm to the quick and easy way Volt performs these tasks.

Developer’s Description

By ACAPsoft
Get a visual update of the internal battery on your laptop.

Leaving your computer on all the time is one way to have your computer ready for you whenever you need it, but it is not the smart way. The smart way is for the computer to turn on before you want it so it can download EMail, news and updates. The smart way is for the computer to turn off automatically if you are not using it, and turn on again later. Volt can do this and more, including all forms of shutdown/suspension, delayed shutdown/suspension, command line operation and logging. The secondary function of Volt is to provide a visual display of the internal battery state of a Laptop Computer. This can be shown via a compact window with a graph and a text line, or by a simple icon with pop-up status in the system tray. The window can be set to stay on, or when the battery state changes according to the users preference. It also can be placed in various set places, or be movable and can also be set to be on-top of other windows and/or made transparent. All ACAPsoft programs are written in 100% Assembly Language for maximum efficiency.

Version 1.4 may include unspecified updates, enhancements, or bug fixes.
