Features:

PC–Time Manager is considered a parental control software that limits computer time. If your children are spending a lot of time chatting on the internet (MSN, AOL, ICQ), or most of their time playing games, you have to set a computer time limit in order to keep them safe from computers affecting their school work and social life. PC–Time Manager plays the role of a guardian on the computer, making sure that the computer is ON only during the scheduled computer time you allow. This timed computer sessions strategy will make sure that your children have access to the computer, without it affecting their school grades.

On the side, PC–Time Manager gives you the ability to share the same computer among your children by creating for each child a computer time limit schedule which provides a safe and friendly environment free of kids fighting over the computer. PC–Time Manager is multi lingual as it comes in two languages: English and French, you only need to change the settings in the control panel menu to switch between languages.

Creates a Computer time schedule

PC–Time Manager provides you with the ability to create a weekly computer time schedule for each Windows User. PC–Time Manager monitors your computer privately and checks whether the currently logged on user is currently allowed to use the computer or not; all according to a preset schedule created by you.

Undetected and Hidden from Windows Users

PC–Time Manager makes sure it is enforcing your preset Computer Time Schedule effectively on the required windows user without being noticed. The only way to access this schedule is by using the PC–Time Manager Control Panel provided.

Set the Type of Action to perform

You want to enforce a computer time schedule but still want to save the computer state before turning it off. Its simple, set the action to be performed to hibernate.

PC–Time Manager provides you with the possibility to set the action to be performed when the computer is to be turned off according to the time schedule. You can LogOff, Hibernate, SwitchOff, Suspend or Restart the computer at any weekly required time of day.

Set a custom Message before turning off

Using the PC–Time Manager Control Panel you have the possibility to set a custom message to be launched 5 minutes (Adjustable) before the computer is turned off. This gives your child the needed time to save his game, finish his chat session or any other thing he needs to do before the computer is turned off.

Setting a schedule for each Windows User

If you have several children and they share the same computer, you probably need to enforce separate schedules for your 8 year old and your 14 year old. The logical thing to do is to create a Windows account for each and every person. PC–Time Manager gives you the possibility to create a separate computer time schedule and custom message for each of the Windows Users. This will provide you a fair but firm way to share the computer by your children.
