"Shutdown Manager" is a software program that enables users to shut down their computers quickly and safely through various methods.
With this software, users can choose from several available actions that include shutting down or powering off your system, rebooting Windows, rebooting into MS-DOS, launching a program, or activating a visual or audible alarm. You can select your preferred action to take place at a specific time, after a timed countdown, or when processor usage falls below a certain percentage for a given number of seconds. For instance, if your computer has been idle for some time, indicating you are not using it and any large batch jobs have finished.
Another impressive feature is that you can customize the functionality of left and right clicks on the ShutDownKing's System Tray icon. This feature enables users to either pull up menus or automatically perform one of the above mentioned actions, with or without user confirmation.
In addition to its flexible shutdown options, ShutDownKing offers a way to quickly customize its System Tray icon, timer icons, and main menu background ('wallpaper') with prepackaged theme images called 'furs' that are available at the developer's Web site. The program also provides other features such as automatically logging you onto Windows (if you provide a user name and password) and changing the Windows Startup, Waiting, and Shutdown logos, which makes the software a valuable tool for users.
Overall, ShutDownKing is a reliable shutdown manager that exposes users to an array of options that allow you to customize the software to meet your preferences. Its simplicity, convenience and flexibility make it an ideal option for both novice and advanced users.
