DShutdown is a free, standalone software that allows users to schedule the shutdown and wake-up of local or remote PCs. It features a variety of shutdown options, as well as monitoring functions such as internet activity, CPU usage, and pixel color monitoring.

One of the standout features of DShutdown is its ability to execute particular options relating to pure shutdown.
