1. Click on the Start Menu

2. Click Run

3. Type CMD in the Open textbox and click OK

4. In the command window type:



net user accountname /times:M-F,8am-8pm; Sa,8am-5pm;Su,8am-1pm

Replace accountname with the name of the account you wish to limit. The time command is a bit tricky, but the above example is easy to replace with the appropriate values. Here’s microsoft’s further information regarding the format of the time command:



Specifies the times that users are allowed to use the computer. Time is limited to 1-hour increments. For the day values, you can spell out or use abbreviations (that is, M,T,W,Th,F,Sa,Su). You can use 12-hour or 24-hour notation for hours. If you use 12-hour notation, use AM and PM, or A.M. and P.M. The value all means a user can always log on. A null value (blank) means a user can never log on. Separate day and time with commas, and units of day and time with semicolons (for example, M,4AM-5PM;T,1PM-3PM). Do not use spaces when designating times.

Setup a task in the task via Control Panel



You can create a short cut to logoff using the following

C:/Windows/System/logout.exe



Then set the shortcut to run everyday at 10:30

Poweroff

is a small program to schedule a shutdown, reboot, logoff, poweroff, Standby, Hibernate or Lock/Wake-On-LAN on the local machine or a remote machine on the LAN. It also supports command line options that allows power-off to be used in batch scripts. The program comes with a built-in scheduler and allows you to run another application before performing the action. In addition, you send warning messages to any use that is logged on, wait for a process to finish, remote control the program and more. PowerOff can optionally run in the system tray.

Freeware.
