    Question Win7: Any program that will automatically lock me out of computer every X minutes?

    Hello,

    In a certain computer setup, I need to use Windows 7. Is there any programs that would automatically lock me out of using the computer every X minutes for Y minutes? I find that time can fly by and I'll realize that I've been wasting much time.
    But if every so often (e.g. every hour), I get locked out for 10 minutes, I'll not only give my wrists/typing and eyes a break, I'll also be able to get a digital rest, which will be the mental break that I need to keep going.

    Thanks.

    Thanks, KiwiNZ. I find that I need more that just an alarm. I need to be forced out of my computer temporarily.

    "Wait feature can force you to pause before dismissing an alarm. Useful to help force you to pay attention to the alarms.;"

    I am sure in the config you can program rest breaks
