Any problems with the latest build guys before I sort everything out.

Main thing needed testing is wake up feature and network usage.
 
Hi Everyone,

I know there hasn't been an update for a very long time, it was mainly due to my University degree, and now it's complete I can carry on with the project.

Within the next week or so I will be rolling out a new website, this website will be very simple and provide straight-forward details and also a way to download Shutdown Timer without any confusion. Also a wiki is under development for all help documentation to be included about Shutdown Timer.

As for Shutdown Timer, I think version 3.1 is near enough complete, now I just need some testers to make sure everything is running as it should! Please download and extract the updated "Final" release of Shutdown Timer 3.1 before it goes live within the next few weeks.

Hey sandeep, nice job on your app. How have you been learning to use C#? I'm trying to learn C#, just doing simple console programs at the moment.

Thanks, well I first got to the basics with C# at Uni last year, and then I liked it so much that I started playing around with it at home.

stackoverflow.com is a big big help when it comes to finding out problems within your code, and there's so many C# tutorials out there to help you out. Visual Studio also helps a great deal with Intellisense.

Oh and also it's a good idea to know an object orientated language like C++ and Java
 
I actually bought a book on C# and Visual Studio (Beginning Visual C# 2010 by Wrox) which covers the basics and more advanced techniques like OOP. Yeah Visual Studio is very good, Intellisense and the way VS indents the code for you is very handy!

I'm not really a book guy, I reckon I learn better by doing hands on practical work and solving my own problems as they arise. At least I know why those problems occur then.
 
Could I have a look at the VS project of that application, just to see how you've coded it? Even if it's one of your older ones.
 
As a note guys, I'm looking for Native speaking German, Spanish, French and Italian speakers to translate my software, anyone interested please message me, the faster I get the translations done the faster I can roll out the new update. Thanks.

Hello.

I've just downloaded the latest 64bit version, extracted, but when I try to run it nothing happens. I look in task manager and it is a running process, but nothing is actually loading up.

EDIT: Never mind, found the latest version on your site.

Good stuff, there have been problems with earlier versions, just make sure you download the latest version from the website.

Thanks.
 
I know this thread hasn't been touched for quite a while but I'd like to introduce some new changes.

Firstly, I have opened a User Voice page for you to post ideas on what could be changed with Shutdown Timer in the future. Simply just go to the page and get posting.

Secondly just showing off the new interface for the next version of the software - it'll also include options to create multiple tasks per step and perform an action after each step. It's going to be a very simple and advanced utility.

Again any tips please post them on UserVoice.
