Solace Shutdown

Shut down, restart, sleep, hibernate, lock or log off your Windows PC on a timer: after a countdown or at a set time of day.

Tested: on 1.3.3-solace.2, pause, resume, reset, a new countdown and the password lock all worked, with no admin rights and no network connections. We never let a timer reach zero in our test.

$22.99 USD

One-time payment for the current Windows package plus 12 months of best-effort SolaceSoftware support and packaging updates. No automatic renewal.

14-day refund if the package can't start its core check — see Purchase terms.

ABOUT THIS PRODUCT

The story behind Solace Shutdown

Leaving a download, a render or a backup running overnight usually means either staying up to turn the PC off or leaving it on until morning. Windows has no simple timer for that, and typing shutdown commands is easy to get wrong.

Solace Shutdown gives you one small window: pick Shutdown, Restart, Hibernate, Sleep, Logout or Lock, set a countdown (for example 1 h 30 min) or a time of day (for example 23:00), and click Start. A countdown window shows the time left; from it or the tray icon you can pause, set a new time, reset, move it to the background or stop. Options let apps close gracefully, keep the PC awake until the timer runs out, run hidden in the tray and protect a running timer with a password. A command line lets you start timers from scripts or shortcuts. Settings live in %AppData%\Solace Shutdown. It makes no network connections, has no account and no update check.
