DESCRIPTION
System Scheduler
is an excellent tool to schedule applications,
batch files, scripts and much more to run unattended.
For anyone used to using MS Windows own Task Scheduler,
System Scheduler
is an ideal and easy to use replacement, with great flexibility
and features.
System Scheduler
runs totally independently of the MS Windows™ Task Scheduler
and has no dependencies on it.
Also, you can schedule pop-up reminders so you'll never forget
those important appointments and things to do.
Reminders, tasks and other events can be set to run once or every
minute, hour, day, week, month or year and several variations on
these.
Po-pup Reminders can be snoozed as required.
System Scheduler
not only allows you to launch programs at scheduled times but also
to send keypresses and mouse-clicks to those programs.
This allows you to not only schedule programs to run overnight or
at the weekend but also get those programs to do useful things
while unattended. A really powerful feature.
Finally, the Free version of
B. System Scheduler
also includes a Window Watcher feature.
The program will check for the existence of a particular window
and send keypresses or send the window a close signal to terminate
running applications.
Useful for triggering actions or handling error messages while
you are away.
