Schedule & Manage Preset Tasks On Your PC (Windows Only)

Marxio Timer allows you to control several aspects of your PC. It lets you do anything from turning off your computer to displaying certain text you’d like to remember later on. It’s a task manager/scheduler, reminder, alarm clock and more.

This app tells your computer to execute tasks specified by you at the time you’d like them to be run. You can turn off, restart, hibernate, suspend, logout, and run other applications on your computer with the click of a few buttons.

How do We do This?

First you’ll have to download the app here.

Now after the app has been successfully installed, you can begin to play around and find out what tasks you’d like to schedule. You’ll need to begin by opening up Marxio Timer and coming to a screen similar to the following:

Within this screen you’ll need to decide whether you want to select a few of the tasks already pre-selected or you can choose the Run Program option and browse through the apps you’d like to run at a selected time.

For the sake of this tutorial I have chosen to run a Display text task. This can come in handy at times when you want to remember important tasks or memos.

Once I’ve entered the selected text I will scroll down and enter the time I’d like the task to run.

Now I can either choose additional tasks to go along with the reminder such as turning off the computer or I can press the Activate button to finalize the task.

As soon as you activate your task a small window will pop-up showing you the allotted time you have before your task is executed. You can easily hide this window and quickly re-open it to check your remaining time as well.

And finally, once your timer has reached its end, the task will be carried out automatically. You won’t need to do anything else but sit back and let Marxio Timer do the rest.

To Conclude:

Marxio Timer also lets you save user profiles for future tasks, and it allows you to create a desktop shortcut so that you’re able to quick-start your tasks without having to fully open up Marxio. Tasks can be virtually scheduled to any time you choose after/before/every few minutes, after your PC is on idle time, once, or on any other pre-selected time periods.

Another quick feature this app comes with is the capturing of screenshots. You can set the timer to capture any area of your screen at whatever time you decide as you manipulate the timer to benefit you. This is a nifty feature that can come in handy for avid users.

Do you know of any other similar apps that can be used to manipulate the PC in this way? If so, let us know about them in the comments.
