Andreal AppAction1.0 Beta

You might not always be around when specific computer tasks are done, which can leave your PC sitting idly by for a considerable amount of time. However, there are tons of dedicated applications like Andreal AppAction which help create schedules based on running processes and decide what action to take in specific situations.

Lightweight and easy to use

The application comes with two components with which to create schedules for running tasks, or simple start timers to perform general activities or trigger power options. These are easy to access and understand thanks to the intuitive layout of the application, and descriptions encountered along the way.Scheduling an action for a specific application can either be done for a custom program, or a process which is already running on a PC. Processes can be selected so general details are automatically filled in, or you can use the browse dialog to point towards a different executable which isn’t currently running or not on the process list.

Schedule power options and program startups

Action to take for a specific process can either be done while it’s running, or when it’s closed. The list of actions isn’t abundant, but it allows you to close the program, run a new one, log off the current account, or power off your PC. All of them are tied to time, so the last step is to either set a counter, or an exact hour of day.These two time methods can also be used individually. Shutdown, logoff, or application startup are the only available actions, which can be programmed to trigger after a specific amount of time, or whenever the clock strikes a specific hour. You can choose to be notified when a task is done, and enable the application to run with Windows so that it’s ready by the time you reach the desktop.

On an ending note

In conclusion, Andreal AppAction can be a little confusing to figure out, but it proves to be a practical method of making sure no program stays running with no purpose, or your computer idly running and using power for no reason.
