    You can time the Windows to shut down after a particular amount of time.
    Open a Command Prompt or Run (Win + R).

    Type the following command:
    shutdown -s -t xxxx

    The xxxx is the time in seconds before you want the computer to shut down. For example, if you want the computer to shut down in 1 hour, then the command should be like:
    shutdown -s -t 3600

    And, instead of shutting down, if you want to restart your computer after some time, then use the following command instead:
    shutdown -r -t xxxx

    If you want to cancel the timer, you can do so by using the Command Prompt again and enter the following command:
    shutdown -a
