I want to make a batch file that will automatically start up and shut down at a certain time, but I don't know how to write it. Please give me some guidance, experts.

Startup can't be done with a batch file... To make the computer start up at a scheduled time, first make sure the computer uses an ATX power supply, the motherboard supports the clock wake-up function, and the operating system is Windows 98 or above. Then enter the BIOS settings at startup, select the "Power Management Setup" item, and set "Resume By Alarm" to enabled, that is, set it to "Enabled". Then in the time settings, set the "Data" item to 0, and in "Time" set the scheduled startup time. After setting it, press the 【F10】 key to save and exit

You can also set automatic startup in Task Scheduler. After setting the program to run and the run time, right-click the task's properties, click Settings, and check "Wake the computer to run this task". When shutting down, you must use hibernation for this to work. Question 1: Although automatic startup and running the program can be carried out at the specified time, after startup it always stops at the user selection screen, and I have to manually choose a user before it can enter the desktop. I'd appreciate it if an expert could point this out. Question 2: I tried using a batch file to hibernate and shut down, but then automatic startup no longer worked. I had to click Shut Down by hand and choose Hibernate for it to work. I don't understand why. I hope an expert can write a complete batch file to achieve full automation

What command is the poster above using to hibernate the computer, is it SHUTDOWN -H or not?

Then when you get a chance, try shutdown -h again. -_- I'm too lazy to test it myself, hope you can reply with the test result, thanks.. If there are many computers that need automatic startup and shutdown, and they are all on the same LAN, you can set them to allow startup over the network, enable wake-on-LAN, and then centrally control the startup and shutdown of the other computers from one machine. Use the WOLCMD command for remote startup, and for remote startup you can use the SHUTDOWN command.
