scheduled tasks - Schedule Computer to Shutdown and Turn on

I have a small computer running Windows Server 2012 for storing files for remote access during the day. At night, the machine is not needed.


Ideally, I'd like the machine to do the following:



  • Monday - Friday: Turn on @ 8AM

  • Sunday - Thursday: Turn off @ 11PM


I know I'll need to add some scheduled tasks, but I'm having issues finding the best implementation of what those tasks need to do. What command specifically would I need to use to completely shut down, and to start up? Or is that piece not possible (and instead would need to be set to 'sleep'?)
