Can you not download WinAT, the GUI equivalent of AT? It's much more user friendly.

yeah after i sent this thread I noticed it was already setup
,So now I would love to know the command string the shutdown file is on the cdrive

 

[meastaugh1]

is it not just shutdown.exe -s ?

or shutdown.exe -s -f if you need it to force shutdown?

you may need to put that command into a batch file, and schedule AT to run the batch file.

Hi,

The syntax I am currently using is:

at 11:00PM c:\..path..\shutdown /r /c /l /y

to force the shutdown to the local machine without prompting you for several days.
Beware to the hours set-up; on some system you may use 23:99 instead.

Ciao,
