Rather than a third party app, I would set up a task schedule inside Windows to shut the PC down at a specific time instead.

If you want more control over the shutdown, you could also bind the task to a hotkey (advanced settings) to only enable the task when the key is pressed - rather than the PC shutting down in the middle of a late-night gaming session (for example).

If you know how long you want your computer on for, you can hit the windows key + r key to open the Run prompt, and then put in "shutdown /s /t 300" but replace 300 with the time, in seconds, that you want your computer to shut down from now.

And then if you want to cancel that, do the windows key + r key, and put in "shutdown /a" and it will abort the shutdown.

If you try that method out and like it, I can help you make a shortcut to it so you can start it like you would anything else on your computer.

Sure, I found few when I typed "shutdown on idle freeware" in Google.

Here you go friend
Edit: Guess I didn't notice I could upload the file before. So I attached it. There's a link to the code in case you wanna do it yourself or something.
 

Timed Shutdown.bat

Just save it's name as "Timed Shutdown.bat"

So paste it into notepad, click File -> Save As -> put "Timed Shutdown.bat" in the file name field -> Save Type As: All Files (*.*) -> Save

And Voila!
