Are you sure you need to call a function, not to launch an application?

Hi, In your window form add the control timer, then giving double click on it, insert the function that you want to run, on the property of the timer must indicate the execution time in milliseconds

eg
private void timer1_Tick (object sender, EventArgs e)
{
             timer1.Start ();
             / / Function name ();
             timer1.Stop ();
}

Solution 1

You might use a timer for the purpose. However I recommend using the Windows Task Scheduler instead.
