Hi, is there a way to have Calibre (on windows 10 and 11) shut down automatically after a certain period of inactivity?

I run Calibre on several different PCs, one at a time. My Library is on OneDrive, synced locally (Calibre is using a local copy).

My problem is that I forget to shut calibre down sometimes when I switch to another PCs, which results in corrupted metadata.

I was thinking having calibre auto shutdown might be a good enough solution, but I will be glad to hear any other ways of doing this.

Thanks, Grant
