Schedule a webpage to open via the command prompt?


On MS Windows operating systems you can use SCHTASK to open a web page at a specific time, why not when it's so easy!





Here are a few examples for the time-controlled opening of websites on the Windows computer with Windows 11,10, ....! This time-controlled opening of a website can be used with all other Windows desktop and server operating systems!


EXAMPLE 1:

In this example it is www.softwareok.com which should be opened at 09:00! 

Info: if it is after 09:00, the website will open the next day!  


SchTasks /Create /SC DAILY  /TN "My Website" /TR "C:\Windows\explorer.exe https://www.softwareok.com" /ST 09:00
 

SUCCESS: The scheduled task "My Website" was created successfully.



TO:  "C:\Windows\explorer.exe https://www.softwareok.com" 

I simply used the file explorer here because it automatically calls up the standard Internet browser and the path is shorter than to the Internet browser. 

Otherwise: ►► Open the location of a program in Windows-10 / 11!

TO: /SC DAILY

You can also use a specific date, see the other examples!


EXAMPLE 2: Listing

the open commands is done by simply typing "SchTasks" with no arguments!


C:\Windows\System32>SchTasks

Folder:\
Task Name Next Runtime Status
=================================== =====
My Website 07/14/2022 09:00:00 Ready
My Website-2 01/01/2023 01:01:00 Ready



EXAMPLE 3: Overriding

the timed opening of the website!


SchTasks /Delete /TN “My Website”



EXAMPLE 5: Listing

again by simply typing SCHTASKS


C:\Windows\System32>SchTasks
Folder:\
Task Name Next Runtime Status
My Website-2 01/01/2023 01:01:00 Ready




EXAMPLE 6:

You want a specific page open at 01:01 on 01/01/2023!

/SD 01/01/2023 <date
/ST 01:01 <time


SCHTASKS /Create /SC ONCE /TN "My Webseite-2" /TR "C:\Windows\explorer.exe https://www.softwareok.com" /SD 01/01/2023 /ST 01:01
 

EXAMPLE 7:

You want a specific page to open at 9:09 every Monday
 


SchTasks /Create /SC WEEKLY /D MON /TN "Task-5" /TR "C:\Windows\explorer.exe https://www.softwareok.com" /ST 09:09


EXAMPLE 8:

You want a specific page to start at 9:09 every day
 

SchTasks /Create /SC WEEKLY /D MON, TUE, WED, THU, FRI, SAT, SUN  /TN "Task-6" /TR "C:\Windows\explorer.exe https://www.softwareok.com" /ST 09:09

Use the SCHTASKS help and play with different settings.
