Zzz..

The purpose of this software is to put my computer to sleep each time I leave the house in order to lower energy consumption. I prefer this over shutting down and rebooting (takes forever) later. Operation is simple - one click starts a 5 second countdown and your computer goes Zzzz. Move mouse or press a key, and your computer wakes up!

Download - Zzz.exe     (11 kB)

This program implements a couple of interesting features -

  • Makes use of idletime.dll to automatically suspend system after preset time.
  • The dll is embedded in the Zzz executable! It is extracted and used during execution and deleted on program exit.

Warning: Use at your own risk. Power management support on Windows is flakey, this program may or may not work for you!
