kevilay2017 Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 Hey guys, With the help of a friend I have an exe file"backup-win-amd64.exe" that backs up all the fanuc robot files via FTP on my machine. There are 24 robots so it is a huge time saver for something that normally takes an hour. I was just wondering if I can take this one step further with an autoit script that runs on windows startup that would back it up every day at 10:00 PM. I know some basic auto it like mouse clicks and running an application, but I dont really know how to interject the time aspect. Also im sure you guys have done some similar stuff and have better methodsof handling this. Thanks, Kevin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nine Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 Use Windows Task Scheduler for that. Just compile your script and enter all the parameters of Task Scheduler. Will save you from having an AutoIt process continuously checking for the right time to start. “They did not know it was impossible, so they did it” ― Mark Twain Spoiler Block all input without UAC Save/Retrieve Images to/from Text Monitor Management (VCP commands) Tool to search in text (au3) files Date Range Picker Virtual Desktop Manager Sudoku Game 2020 Overlapped Named Pipe IPC HotString 2.0 - Hot keys with string x64 Bitwise Operations Multi-keyboards HotKeySet Recursive Array Display Fast and simple WCD IPC Multiple Folders Selector Printer Manager GIF Animation (cached) Screen Scraping Multi-Threading Made Easy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
