Close LabViIEW automaticly after installer and execution creation

[sandrip]

When i finish my working day I often start to build a installer and execution. Because I don´t want my computer to run the whole night, I initiate a windows shutdown after for example one hour (shutdown -s -t 3600). In this case it would be nice if I could say "Save project and quit LabVIEW after building installer execution" or even "Save project and shut down computer after building installer and execution" so I would not get an error message when I start LV again.

What is the problem with letting the computer run the whole night?

You can execute post build VI's.  And those VI's could save your project and exit LabVIEW.

That depends what price you put on the 500 kWh of heat that you needlessly dissipate into the atmosphere each year if you leave your office PC on every evening and weekend...

That's why PC's have sleep modes and hibernate nodes.

As I said, there is a way to use the post build VI to do the job for you.
