I can't seem to troubleshoot your problem. It may be that your time format may be wrong. Look at your systems time and match and see if it works. Also you have no action selected at the top.

I will try it again later but can you tell me a bit about that "By Time" there is 2 sections, time and in minutes. If i want it to shutdown in say 30 minutes i write in 30 minutes? What about the time? Which of those gets priority?

They both work together.

If you want the system to shutdown in 30 minutes from the moment you press the activate button then you would have: (using 20:34 as an example for the current time)

When the system time is 20:34 in 30 minutes.

This will shutdown the system 30 minutes from the time you press activate.

I will be releasing a manual out for this when it's all complete don't worry.

Hello Sandeep,

That's a great Job. I would suggest an additional option "Minimize to Tray". Because, sometimes the application may be closed from the taskbar unknowingly. So, you can provide an additional option.

Hi venths. That option does exist. If you look in the preferences window. Under notifications you will see it.

Just want to jump into the discussion and say this app is great. It is also so pretty, but I can't get preferences to work. It pulls up a exception error


I'm on Windows 7 Using Portable Version

Can you go to the reliability history and find the crash. View technical details and post a screenshot of tha please.

Also if possible can you try the install version and let me know if it works.

Thanks

Well I can't use the install version as I don't have admin rights on this computer and mine is not available at the moment but here is a screenshot

Can you check if there is a config.ini file where you have the shutdown timer executable

 

[RJ12]

Yes there is a config file

 

[sandeep]

Yes there is a config file

I found out what the problem could be,
Can you put just the Shutdown Timer.exe file in it's own folder and that's it.

Then run it.

Also what version are you using 32bit or 64?

 

[RJ12]

I'm running 32bit. I just tried that and still no go. It seems to be looking in the AppData folder. Is this the problem?

Yes that's what the problem is, it seem's it's looking in the appdata normally that's where the main program's config is.

I'll recode it and upload a different version in the next few minutes.

 

[RJ12]

Okay cool, thanks for your time and effort

 

[sandeep]

Okay cool, thanks for your time and effort

np, I don't want to be giving out software that doesn't work and that's what the feedback's for

I have now fixed the problem, if you download from the website again it should be working fine.
