Thank you for reaching out to us on the Microsoft Q&A forum.
To automatically save the virtual desktop by logging out and then logging back in, you can try with a below following approach.
You can disconnect the connection when a machine remains idle for a specified duration / Initiate shutdown after a certain period following user disconnection / Commence shutdown after a few minutes if a user fails to connect.
To schedule the start/stop based on schedule please follow below documation for more information.
