Is there a cron equivalent on Windows?

Question

I want to know if there is a cron equivalent on Windows and how I can use it programmatically using PHP.

Answer 1

Windows has the Control Panel's Scheduled Tasks applet (or the control console console in later versions of Windows), but you can also access it through schtasks.exe if you want to automate it from the command line.

Alternatively, you can also use at from the command line to schedule tasks.

Answer 2

Need to be in the / bash shell?

Windows has a “tool” that you could run tasks at a given time.

Task Scheduler

Try to see it like this: HERE
