Hi,

Put it in the Windows Scheduler,
Add 3 tasks in Scheduled Task for 3 different times.
Available in Control Panel, Scheduled Task.

unfortunately. the scheduler isn't an option. this is a project for work, on a network, and i don't have permissions to use the scheduler

Hi,

In that case, Keep a Timer Interval =60000 ( equals 1 Min)

In Timer1_Timer event, check the time using Now, If It is either one of the time, then using Shell command AppActivate the required exe.

For this u have to keep this exe continiously running.
