We are here to setup Cron Job in Window Based machine! For Linux/Unix/Mac.

This can be useful when you hosting provider doesn't support for Cron Jobs and also helpful when you are using Window server to host your Web Application/Site.

Note: I am using Windows 7, But for other version it should be something similar only.

Using Schedule Taks - UI Based

Open Control Panel
Go to Administrative tools
Select Schedule Task
General Tab, Give a name to your scheduled task. e.g. Test Cron Job
Select Trigger Tab, Click "New", Select timings for executions of Cron Job
Select Actions Tab, Click "New", Select Program to execute, in our case we want to run Cron Job. So we will require to run browser. So select Firefox, Chrome, IE etc.
Suppose Cron URL is http://example.com/cronjob.php Action should be like "C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplorer.exe" "http://example.com/cronjob.php"
Click Ok! It's Done.

Using Schedule Taks - Command Line

Open command prompt
Fire below command to setup Cron Job hourly

schtasks /create /tn "Drupal Cron Job" /tr "C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplorer.exe http://www.example.com/cron.php" /sc hourly

For more options see help of schtasks command. fire schtasks/? to see help of command

For any reason if you don't wish to open Browser you can use Wget or cUrl

Using Wget

Install Wget from SourceForge
Follow all the steps to above for Schedule Taks, instead of internet explorer select wget.exe

Using cUrl

Install cUrl from SourceForge
Follow all the steps to above for Schedule Taks, instead of internet explorer select curl.exe
