At present Groovix linux installation closing time settings do not affect windows installations. You can set up windows scheduled tasks to warn users when the library is closing. You can edit C:\ProgramData\Groovix\Scripts\closing-time-warnings.vbs for your specific situation. For example, if you want: * an initial warning at 15 minutes before closing time * a second warning at 10 minutes before closing time * your user's to be kicked off the computers at 5 minutes before closing time * your library closes at 8PM Set: * time1 = 5 ( time1 is the time in minutes between the initial warning and the second warning ) * time2 = 5 ( time2 is the time in minutes between the final warning and shutdown ) * change the message1 and message2 variables as desired * schedule closing-time-warnings.vbs to run at 7:45PM You can set the task scheduler to repeat weekly and choose multiple days of the week, so for a typical M-R, F, S schedule you need to set up 3 scheduled tasks. Here is one guide to using the windows scheduler: https://www.windowscentral.com/how-create-automated-task-using-task-scheduler-windows-10
