The at command no longer works on modern windows, and directs you to use schtasks instead, which is far less convenient. Instead, I use timeout /T SECONDS [/NOBREAK], which requires the console to remain open, but provides a countdown that can be skipped at any time. It takes a number of seconds as input.

timeout /t 3600 /nobreak && shutdown /h to hibernate in an hour, with a running countdown and disables the ability to skip the countdown (don't shut your PC off early because you fumbled alt+tab and typed in the wrong place...)

netsh wlan set enabled hostednetwork
netsh set hostednetwork SSID="my computer"
`netsh set hostednetwork

From Microsoft:

So for example:

netsh wlan set hostednetwork enabled
netsh wlan set hostednetwork ssid="Get off my LAN"
netsh wlan set hostednetwork key="badpassword"
netsh wlan start hostednetwork
