# Schedule virtual desktops
<a name="schedule-virtual-desktops"></a>

By default, virtual desktops are scheduled to automatically stop on Saturdays and Sundays. Schedules on individual desktops can be adjusted using the Schedule windows accessed from the **Actions** menu on individual desktops as shown in the next section. To learn more about [Setting default schedules across the entire environment](setting-default-schedules.md) see that section. Desktops can also stop if idle to help reduce costs. See [Virtual desktop interface autostop](virtual-desktops-autostop.md) to learn more about VDI Autostop.
