Rebooter 1.3.1007 by PassMark Software is a lightweight system utility created to automate shutdown, reboot, and logout operations, primarily serving PC hardware testing workflows. Originally conceived to complement PassMark BurnInTest, the program equally accepts command-line calls from any third-party script or application, enabling unattended restarts during extended diagnostics or benchmarking cycles. Operators can schedule a one-time reboot after a user-defined interval, force an immediate shutdown, request a graceful exit, or configure an indefinite reboot loop that power-cycles the machine until manually stopped. Additional options include toggling Windows auto-login on NT-class systems to streamline repeated boots, and embedding timed restarts within larger hardware stress-testing plans so that memory, CPU, and storage subsystems are exercised across successive power states. Although only one build—version 1.3.1007—has been released, its compact footprint and command-line interface make it suitable for integration into batch files, continuous-integration rigs, or remote maintenance scripts where predictable reboot behavior is required. The utility runs on legacy and current Windows editions, requires no installation, and exposes all functions through succinct switches that can be chained for complex sequences. By abstracting the underlying ExitWindowsEx API, Rebooter spares technicians from writing custom code while ensuring consistent, loggable restart events that align with PassMark’s broader testing ecosystem. The software is available for free on get.nero.com, with downloads provided via trusted Windows package sources such as winget, always delivering the latest version and supporting batch installation of multiple applications.
