    How Do I Automatically Shutdown my Computer after Idle?


    I want my Windows 11 Laptop to restart after an hour of being idle and this is what I put in task scheduler:It doesn't do anything though, it never triggers or starts or runs on its own.

    :)

    automatic shutdown program

    Oh, once you have a working script that kills bluestacks and hibernates the system, then you can schedule that script..
    Step a - prove the script; Step b - schedule it.

    You would need to run the task if the PC has been idle for a certain time. Here is an example, except that instead of executing shutdown, you would use the script:

    How Do I Automatically Shutdown my Computer after Idle?

    Bluetooth still on while idle

    Thanks for following the steps. Now, the settings won't take effect if you are only using normal PC idle mode. Normal functionality of Bluetooth and Wi-Fi settings are to stay connected even if PC is idle. With the settings that you have created, we would
    suggest that you set your PC to automatically go to Sleep or
    Hibernate
    once idle. In this way, the settings "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power" should take effect.

    To set your PC to automatically go to Sleep or Hibernate when idle, please follow these steps:

    • Open Control Panel, set view by: Small
      icons.
    • Look for Power Options.
    • Click on Change when the computer sleeps on the left pane.
    • Set a timer.

    Please try it out. Hope it helps. If you have any other concerns, don't hesitate to come back to us.
