mlevit Posted January 8, 2007 Report Share Posted January 8, 2007 Hi,I've always wanted uTorrent to incorporate a shutdown timer into the program.I have to use 3rd party programs which make the computer shutdown, but then uTorrent is not closed properly and ive received corrupted file errors from uTorrent before for this.I would love to this this feature. It would only be one timer, you would set the time and what you want to do i.e. Shutdown, Standby or Hibernate and then it would.I use it all the time to make sure i dont download during my peek downloading times.Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted January 8, 2007 Report Share Posted January 8, 2007 Any reason you don't use the scheduler instead? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mlevit Posted January 8, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2007 Well i do not wish to download during my peek times at all, and in scheduler the lowest download speed you can do is 1kb/s, but that means a) I'm still downloading and my computer is on when it doesn't have to be Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted January 8, 2007 Report Share Posted January 8, 2007 Wrong, the scheduler can always stop torrents if you set it to "Turn off" in the appropriate time slot, as long as the torrents aren't forced. Anyhow, if you currently automate a shutdown, then as long as you don't force all applications to exit immediately when the shutdown script runs, then µTorrent should shut down properly.

parallax Posted May 10, 2007 Report Share Posted May 10, 2007 I hope i'm not to late, but i had the same problem years ago and since then i'm using a little gizmo named WinDown. It's a really simple and little program that let's you set when the computer will be shot down.Download it from here:http://gorkem.boun.edu.tr/download.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dandar3 Posted June 2, 2007 Report Share Posted June 2, 2007 Hi,I have an internet connectiong with a daily quota of 1 GB and since my request for embedding logic in uTorrent to be able to set a daily quota was bluntly shut down, I wrote myself a little .Net program that does just that.Feel free to give it a try and let me know if you find any problems or if you have any requestshttp://dandar3.blogspot.com/2007/06/network-monitor.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diroll Posted April 29, 2011 Report Share Posted April 29, 2011 Yes, I'm with you. I'm also interested in having Utorrent exiting, shutting down pc or hibernation at X specified time and date.Also, the scheduler is is better be manually specified by time and date.Regards.
