Existing users, 
For a long time, I have asked and seen people asked the developer to add a button "Shutdown when finished". But the developer hasn't done it.
Some times when I'm ready to shutdown, I want to run the YASU tool and let it do all its things...which usually takes a few minutes.
Currently, the ONLY option now is "Restart when finished" after all tasks are finished.
So I'd have to wait for all tasks to finish, then YASU reboots itself; THEN I manually shut my computer down. It's not fun when it's 3am in the morning.
Does anyone have any clues why this is hard to do? the developer hasn't figured out how to do it? or is it technically impossible to shut down after performing these maintenance tasks.
I don't mean to insult the developer...just curious (and a bit frustrated) as to why he didn't include that in this latest release.
Other than that, it's still a great tool!
Thanks.

I'd suggest that you set your Energy Saver System Preference to schedule shutdown automatically. If the YASU tasks run and then restart your Mac at 3 am then set the machine to shutdown at 3:15 am to give it time to get all booted back up. Jim's software is fine the way it is.Monday, December 05 2005 @ 06:56 AM PST
Onyx has "Shutdown when done" - sitchwebdesign_dotmac
Setting your energy saver to shut down seems like a lot of trouble. And the preference is permanent until unset (you can't set it to shut down only once).Besides, why shutdown-startup-shutdown when a simple shutdown will do? Try Onyx.

From the Developer - "Shut down when finished" was not part of this release due to the fact that 1.3.5 is a maintenance fix that specifically addressed authentication problems regarding Apple Security Update 2005-009.Yes, I've been able to "figure out" how to add the option, and have chosen not to do it until the next release (2.0) for very specific reasons.
At any rate, thanks for your inquiry about it, and keep an eye out for the new release soon.
