Sleep Timer

by James M. Allen

This Widget lets you set a timer to put your computer to sleep. Once the timer has elapsed, your computer will either go to sleep (aka hibernate/standby), log off, shut down, or restart, depending on the option you choose.

Click on the bed to start the timer and to expand/contract the Widget while the timer is running. Click on the time when the timer is stopped to cycle through preset sleep times, or set the countdown time manually in preferences.
Current Version: 1.1

    pixel, can you please check out http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/22975993/ and try running that? It shuts down fine for me... do you have any sort of "Internet Security" software or whatnot that prevents you from running VBScripts? The version at that link attempts to use two different methods for shutting down.

    ehm... "doesn't shut down" means that the widget counts down and nothing happens. the timer is set to his previous start time and really nothing happens. :-(

    (me: win xp sp2; version 1.0 worked perfect)

    sorry. I added my comment to version 1.0 when I downloaded v 1.1. in this case, it is a large difference:

    v1.0 could shut down my win xp while v1.1 doesn't!! this should be immediate fixed. so i would like to switch back to version 1.0 but where can i get it?

    Hi James, the bug for turning off for limited users on windows is "half" fixed...it quits but requires the user to manualy shutdown (the screen apears saying "you can now turn off your computer")... PC limited users is it only happening with me ? if not I hope it can be fixed ! :) Again though Great work

    great widget!

    but a new notification action would improve the flexibilty a lot. e.g. I set the time to 3 min and the action to notify/pop-up. and after that countdown, the widget just pops up with an message. i need it to be reminded when my tea is ready ;-)

Get It!
