Is it possible to schedule a shut down time??
If so, how?

You could use the shutdown command-line command. You could tell the system
to shutdown after a given number of seconds.

You could create a scheduled task to run and shutdown the machine using the
shutdown command-line command at a certain time with a given number of
seconds warning.

Use the Task Scheduler and create a scheduled task to run SHUTDOWN.EXE This file is located in the Windows\System32 folder.

You can open a Command Prompt window and enter SHUTDOWN /? for the list of command line options.
