Kidney Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 So i am just wondering if there is a way to detect the network usage very minute or so so that i can have my computer shut down once a download/upload is done. im actually not really concerned with upload as i am download. just for the record, i know that MOST programs have a shut down feature built into them once the client is done downloading but Steam however does not. Anyways, i was thinking of maybe just monitoring steam but then i thought that if i just have a program that just looks at internet usage and then put a 5 minute timer on it then that would probably work better. Any ideas on where i should start? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kidney Posted August 1, 2013 Author Share Posted August 1, 2013 what about standard power settings to shutdown after a period of inactivity? well as far as i can tell, "inactivity" is based on mouse movements and key strokes. unless there is a way to define what an activity is in windows.

Kidney Posted August 1, 2013 Author Share Posted August 1, 2013 '?do=embed' frameborder='0' data-embedContent>> this doesnt seem to have a way to show what the current internet activity is. any other ways that come to mind? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
