Is there a way to disable Windows set on a timer? I have pretty silly sleep issues and just want to completely turn off my computer at about 11:30PM until morning the next day. I have checked the child settings but I couldn't figure out a way where I can't just unlock it. I also couldn't find anything online. I saw one post on Microsoft about it but the only suggestion was to use Task Scheduler to lock the PC, but then it could just be unlocked immediately so why bother. I remember from using Macs as a kid my mom would set them up to be completely disabled at certain times. I do have a person I live with who could hold some kind of master password if that's ultimately necessary to lock it at night, but obviously I need to be able to access the computer when they aren't around.

Honestly, idk if it would work for you, but you could set up task scheduler to tell you passive aggressive things every couple minutes if your pc is on past 11:30pm

I could use some help with this!

please, pm me if you would like to contribute to my gpu bios database (includes overclocking bios, stock bios, and upgrades to gpus via modding)
