Winexit2.8.8.7

You might not be around to turn off your computer after a specific lengthy task is done. Some types of applications come with built-in options to automatically shut down the PC when done. In case the one you use doesn’t, then WinExit can help out, or at least to make sure your PC doesn’t stay on if you fall asleep at night during a movie.

Configure visuals and log recording

The preferences menu shows up the first time you launch the application so you can customize visual and behavior options. It starts with Windows by default, but there’s the possibility to simple disable this at the press of a button. One of several skins can be used, with the additional option to customize font.Apart from visuals, the preferences menu can be used to specify parameters of saving log files. These come with a surprising variety of value fields for time to record logs, which can also include lunch breaks. Log files can be exported as XLS files, opened, or bring up a statistics window regarding usage time.

Clean history and set shutdown trigger time

On the bright side of things, the application can handle a bit more than simply putting one of the available power options in motion. One example is the cleaning tool which automates the process of clearing Explorer history, last used URL, empty Recycle Bin, delete temp files, all with the option to wait a specific amount of time before the PC shuts down.Last but not least, there’s the possibility to also have a specific program start before shutting down the PC. Additionally, you can choose to wait until finished so that the process is not suddenly interrupted.All controls are handled from the tray area. Most common power options are at your disposal, such as forced shutdown, log off, restart, hibernate, or regular shutdown. These can be either triggered on the spot, or through a configurable timer. Be sure to have work saved so you don’t end up accidentally losing data.

In conclusion

Bottom line is that automatic shutdown is a pretty useful feature which can help save power, and even battery life. With an intuitive design and pretty decent variety of features, WinExit is sure to live up to expectations.
