We routinely use our PC and it’s likely that we sit in front of the computer at more or less the same time. And every single time, we have to manually turn on the computer and wait for another few minutes before Windows loads up everything (read how to speed up Windows 10). It makes the whole experience tedious and frankly, tiresome. So to solve this issue, we have come up with a short tutorial on how to automatically turn on the PC on a schedule. You can assign specific time and day and your Windows computer will boot up automatically and be ready to use. How cool is that? So without wasting any time, let’s go ahead and learn how to auto-start Windows computers.

  1. First and foremost, you need to boot into the BIOS or UEFI screen. You can do so by pressing either the Esc, Del, or F11 key while turning on your PC. You can find a comprehensive list of boot keys for different manufacturers from the image below.

  2. Once you are on the BIOS/UEFI screen, move to the “Power” section and look for any of these terms: Wake up alarm, BIOS Power-on, RTC Alarm, or APM Configuration. You will have to do some digging to find the appropriate option. If the option is not under the power menu then switch to the “Advanced” section.
