All users like to be aware of what happens on our computer, we see the processes that are running, we check the performance, the installed programs and even more so if the computer we use is shared with the family. For this reason, it is likely that on some occasion you have asked yourself when has your PC been turned on and of course also at what time it was turned off, rather than out of curiosity it is good to know in order to keep track of the time of use of the computer.
Well, you should know that Windows records this information, if you have knowledge of managing Administrative Tools you can discover it by accessing the «Events viewer«, however this procedure requires many clicks and is somewhat dull even for the advanced user.
TurnedOnTimesView, to serve you ...
And to simplify the task we just have small but powerful utilities such as TurnedOnTimesView, which, as its name clearly says, will allow us know what time our computer has been turned on.
But that's not all, in detail what is shown is the following:
- Start date and time (on)
- End date and time (Off)
- Duration
- Reason for shutdown (failure, scheduled, etc)
- Shutdown type
- Shutdown process
- Shutdown code
As you will see TurnedOnTimesView is a very simple tool that analyzes the Windows operating system event log, and detects the time the computer was on. As if that were not enough, this good software allows you to obtain this information from your local computer and from a remote computer on the network if you have sufficient privilege to read the Windows event log remotely.
The nice thing is that it is free, it does not need to be installed (portable), it is light (few KB) and being a program developed by NirSoft.net we know that it is quite efficient, like its other utilities.
Do not forget that to put it in Spanish you must download the translation and unzip it in the same folder where you have unzipped (forgive the redundancy) the program.
