In this blog we will learn about task scheduling in window
Task scheduling in operating system means to schedule a task in our PC and after that operating system will run that task automatically on daily basis, weekly basis, monthly basis as per your choice.
Task scheduling on a PC can indeed save time and boost productivity. Here’s how it works:
Automates Repetitive Tasks: Instead of manually performing routine tasks (like running backups, updates, or scripts), you can set these to happen automatically at scheduled intervals.
Maximizes Resource Usage: You can schedule heavy tasks (e.g., data processing, antivirus scans) to run at off-peak hours, such as overnight, so that they don’t slow you down during work hours.
Reduces Forgetfulness: With task scheduling, you don’t have to remember to perform certain tasks—they’ll be done automatically, reducing the chance of missing important activities.
Increases Efficiency: By automating tasks, you can focus on more important work, freeing up your time and mental bandwidth.
Windows, macOS, and Linux all have built-in task scheduling tools, such as Task Scheduler (Windows) or cron (Linux), that allow users to manage this easily.
For Executing it in window
You have to click on the window icon on PC, then type task scheduler in search box
Then open task scheduler, a window will open ,there is a create basic task option in action tab
click on that, a box will appear fill the necessary details there and your task has been scheduled.
For pushing our project code to github we can save our time by using task scheduler
- So first of all you have to make a uploaderscript.bat file in your local directory
- then you have to write this inside that file 👇
cd /d D:/path/to/your/working/project // here come path
git add .
git commit -m "Daily update"
git push origin main
- After that in your task scheduler you are going to fill the details 👇
In program/script field put that upload-script.bat file and click next
And This file will run automatically according to your scheduling interval no matter if your VS code is open or close.
