Help on locating a program.
« on: June 15, 2010, 04:34:21 pm »

I need a program, and I need it to perform a specific function: Turn the computer off when a specific program closes. I'm doing a lot of time-consuming stuff, and it would be great to do them overnight but I'd like not to have to leave the PC running until the next day. Anyone?

I don't claim to know, but, can't you do this via scheduling and tasks from within Windows? (Assuming you're on Windows.)
