So far with no success. Do not want sleep or hibernate full shutdown required I have set up tasks in task scheduler does not work windows 10 auto shutdown when idle free checked settings are ok. I have tried several 3rd part apps and apart from 1 paid for application on trial nothing seems to work that is free? I suspect its all to do with the computers on windows 10 are not ever actually running idle so windows 10 auto shutdown when idle free process does not kick in hence no shutdown.
Just wondered has anybody out in MDL found a working free method to achieve this operation?

Feb 10, 1, 4, I have looked in the settings within task scheduler and say I have set the time for 30 mins using the powershell script the time is set correctly for 30mins in task scheduler but the computer ignores this and shuts down everytime after only 10 mins??
