Auto Shutdown reset

Postby ohanberg » Tue Sep 25, 2018 3:03 am

I occasionally do downloads at night and then I use the Auto Shutdown switch. The next day I start my PC and I have forgotten about this switch. Later I do a daytime download and upon completion Auto Shutdown shuts down my PC in the middle of a working day. Not what I wanted.
It would be nice to have the Auto Shutdown switch reset after each usage.

It pops up a warning box and you can then tell it not to shutdown. That isn't enough?

The problem is that the pop up warning only works if I look at the screen when it pops up.

Would love that feature too for the same reason as the OP.
