CNET editors' review
Reviewed by: CNET Staff
This free application impressively allows you to schedule programs to run and close and hands out quick pop-up reminders. System Scheduler lets you schedule specific times to open programs and even send keystrokes to be entered. You can set events to run as often as every minute or as sporadically as once a year. Schedule the program's window watcher to close, minimize, or automatically send key presses to any opened window by simply entering the title that will appear in the title bar of your browser or file and the time you want the action to occur. We also like that it includes pop-up reminders with optional WAV audio files for important events and you can hit snooze for the reminder to reappear in so many user-specified minutes. For automatic program launching and quick reminders, System Scheduler is an excellent choice and best of all--it's free.Publisher's description
From Splinterware :Three main functions: 1) Pop-up reminders. 2) Task/Program Launcher. 3) Window Watcher (look for particular window by title and SEND KEYPRESSES to that window (useful for re-establishing broken Internet connections).

Tray icon for easy admin, help files, and e-mail support available.

Version: System Scheduler 3.41
"Good for scheduling tasks to start, but you can't schedule them to end"
Pros: Easy to use format, not made by M$, gets the job done.
Cons: You can't schedule when to end a task, which is equally important as to when the task starts to me.

Version: System Scheduler 3.41
Pros: This software answered all I asked of it for controlling the up time of a home automation computer and launching the neccessary applications on startup. Got the pro version and was well worth the dosh in my opinion. Amazing program for its size ~950k
Cons: Would be useful if it had an application terminator instead of having to send keystrokes or mouse clicks. Won't start a computer up after a shutdown - has to be from a hibernate (but no scheduler Ive seen can do this!) Pros way outweigh the cons!

Version: System Scheduler 3.41
Pros: This is probably the only spyware protector you will ever need. It has an auto update feature and scheduled scan. The best part is that it is free! :)

Version: System Scheduler 3.41
"Looking for a good program scheduler - look no further!"
Pros: This does everything I've ever wanted. You can select a program to run once, certain times, every 5, 10, or every so many minutes you want to run. I haven't found a program that would easily do this in a long time. It also comes with buttons that will automatically update the time and date so you don't have to manually put them in and then easily increase say a hour or so. I just love this program!
