Z-Cron is a free task scheduling utility for WIndows. But wait, doesn't Windows aready include a task scheduler? Yes, but it's not exactly what we'd call user friendly. And while Z-Cron might look a little intimidating at first glance, it includes a nice long list of activities that you can schedule with just a few clicks. Here are just a few of the tasks included:
- Alarm CLock
- Cleanfile - delete old files
- CopyDir - Copy a directory (great for performing daily, weekly, or monthly automated backups)
- Delete files
- Download files
- Empty trash
- Hibernate
- Log out
- Move a directory
- Switch a screensaver on or off
- Send an email
- Shutdown
- Standby
While there are a ton of tasks built into the interface, you can also create your own by selecting programs you want to name and scheduling a time for them to run.
