Task Scheduler

taskschd.msc

The graphical console for creating, viewing, and managing scheduled tasks — actions Windows runs automatically on a trigger like a time, login, or event.

// EXAMPLE

Setting a backup script to run daily at 2 AM is a typical Task Scheduler use case.

// GOTCHA

A scheduled task silently failing is easy to miss — check the "Last Run Result" column and the task's History tab rather than assuming it worked.
