My wife has a bad habit of spending time on Facebook (several hours) then walking away from the computer leaving all of the websites she has visited open (sometimes as many as 35-40 are open). Sometimes they are open all night and leaves my computer vulnerable to attacks.

How can I set Waterfox 64bit to automatically shut down at around 11:30pm? I am running Windows 10.

Go to the Mozilla Add-ons Web Page {web link} (There’s a lot of good stuff here) and search for what you want.

You can look for something that will shut down the browser after X minutes, or at a given time.
