Thought I would put up this tutorial after some traction on Elevenforum so here it is (sorry it is short, and not many photos, I’m currently on mobile and can’t use my pc)




OPTION 1

Through Task Scheduler (GUI)




How to use Task Scheduler to open a program on Windows!-8059566c-8d5a-4a18-bec8-05ca11af51ee.jpeg

1 Open Task Scheduler (In search bar within Start Menu)

2 Create Task

3 Go to the Triggers tab

4 Click New

5 Begin the task: At logon/At startup And Tick “Delay task for:”

6 Enter 15 minutes and click OK

7 Head to the Actions tab And choose Action: Start a program

8 Browse And Choose app, click OK

9 Go to the General tab And Choose a name

10 Click OK




OPTION 2

Through bat file (PS)



Thank you to Archigos on Elevenforum for the following information.

1 First, we must create a batch file. To do this, create a new .txt file through notepad, then rename it and replace .txt for .bat

2 Open the .bat file with notepad. Note: this file can be called whatever you like.

3 in notepad, paste the below bat command in. Edit the file as shown beneath.

Code:
 @ECHO OFF
timeout /t 15 /nobreak
awcc.exe
Change 15 for the amount of minutes you want delay. Replace “awcc.exe” with your program, make sure it is in the same folder, and that is has .exe on the end. So, put the .bat file in your program folder.

4 Finally, run the .bat file (right click, run; double click) and this will activate the script. Now you can run this script at startup, which may be easier on some systems. And decrease the load on start up, in comparison to Task Scheduler.

I hope this tutorial helps
