Windows comes with a Task Scheduler but as I'm playing with it, it only seems to allow starting a program, but not actually shutting it down. 

I would consider including a timed shutdown in your program or build another app, as is suggested below, to send SHUTDOWN commands to running apps. How you would link the running processes, I do not fully understand.
