I have a habit of falling asleep while watching a movie on YT. Is there any way I could set the laptop to turn itself off after a few hours? It's about saving electricity.
Yes, you can set a timer so that it counts so and so many seconds from the point in time and then goes down.
Energy options, for example, otherwise
Delayed shutdown of the PC using "shutdown.exe"
You do not need an extra tool to automatically switch off your computer or laptop after a certain period of time. Windows can do this out of the box.
Press [Win] + [R] to open the Run window.
Enter "shutdown -s -t xxxx". The xxxx stand for the time in seconds after which the PC should shut down. For example, two hours are 7200 seconds.
Does not bring him much xD without the input command
I use the flexible Econap tool for something like this.

This means that several "events" are monitored at the same time (e.g. CPU and network load). If both "events" fall below the preset threshold value for an (adjustable) period of time, the computer goes into standby mode.
The basic version is free. The rather inexpensive "Econap Pro" can do a little more.
The Shutter tool would be much simpler, but also quite effective.

Here, however, only a single (presettable) "event" is monitored.
Super.
