Hello,

Is there already a function implented in Usenet Explorer that it automatically shuts down the computer when the files are downloaded?
If yes, where and how do I do this?

Or can I only set a time to shutdown the computer?

Thanks

Did you look under "taks" on your menu bar?

Looks like there are:
- Finish all tasks and exit
- Finish all tasks and shutdown windows

Which will do exactly what they say...

Yes, but also automatically?

Try it and see for yourself.

Select 'Finish all tasks and exit' and then download any random small-ish file. UE will exit once it has downloaded and saved the file. UE will not exit if there are files pending to be saved and the save queue is suspended. Trying this yourself will let you see what the effects the options have. This is why I suggest downloading a small file - even a few lines of text should be enough.

'Finish all tasks and exit Windows' works the same as 'Finish all tasks and exit' with the obvious difference I don't need to mention.
