    1. Prevent scheduled shutdowns if user is logged in

      The behaviour of performing a scheduled shutdown if a user is logged in but not actively using a machine makes a lot of sense in a business environment where each user has their own machine. However in open access public use environments (e.g. school or college computing labs), shutting down or hibernating the computer when a user is logged in is not desirable. Consider adding an additional configuration option which prevents the computer shutting down if a user is logged in

      • Disable power savings when user is giving a presentation

        When user is using Powerpoint or similar, make Powerdown temporarily disable power savings so that the computer does not turn of the display or shut down due to lack of interaction from the user
