There are times when shutting down your PC is just as standard, routing operation, nothing fancy. And there are times when shutting it down, quickly that is, becomes a top priority. For those who the dedicated Start menu button or the keyboard shortcuts aren’t sufficiently fast, Shutdown PC Fast can provide an alternative.

This nifty little app was designed with the sole purpose of allowing you to power down your PC quickly, with just a single mouse click, without having to resort to the classic methods provided in the OS.

I was happy to see that Shutdown PC Fast in addition to offering fast functionality, also features a quick installation process. Not only that, but it’s ready to go instantly, without needing additional tweaks and configuration.

Having said that, right after its swift deployment, simply clicking on the yielded desktop shortcut will initiate the PC shutdown sequence, quite fast. It’s that simple, and I was happy to see that the duration of the sequence is short, regardless if you have multiple apps running.

First thing that came to mind after testing the app’s main functionality was if there are additional settings or options to tweak around. But thinking again I realized that given the simplicity of its task, and the fact that it’s performed manually, such options are not required.

Nevertheless, one potential aspect that might be addressed in future iterations of the app would be features that could allow you to schedule such quick power-down tasks.

This app provides simple and reliable functionality for those who need a quick way of shutting down their PCs, as an alternative to the regular means of doing so. It will allow single-click power down, in a quick and simple manner.
