Hi all,

What is the best way to implement a "scheduler" to run a task every day at a
certain time-of-day?

Take care,

You can write a Windows Service that uses a Timer to periodically
"awaken" and launch any tasks that are scheduled for the current time. That
is how the Windows Task Scheduler works (I hope that your question is due to
academic curiosity, and not because you intend to implement such a
scheduler, since it is alerady built-in into Windows).

Why not use the builtin Windows Scheduled Task feature?
