help me find a software

Hi all
I need a software for automation of routine computer operations...I just schedule it to do something once and when I start my pc it will just do its job...is there something like that?

Windows already has one. It's under Accessories>System Tools>Scheduled Tasks.

Or you could write a .bat file to copy the file and then use task scheduler to run the .bat when you want!
