Microsoft Windows  have a built-in task scheduler. For many backup tasks, you might need to be able to start the backup without a user currently logged in at the machine. The work should be done automatically, without any human intervention. For this reason, Windows offers the Task Scheduler service. You can use the control panel to tell this service which applications it should start at what times.
 

Backup Scheduling

Z-DBackup contains a built-in interface to Microsoft Task Scheduler. If the option Windows Task Scheduler was activated in the backup set, you can specify the scheduling settings for a selected backup set with the  Schedule  button in the main window or in the settings of Z-DBackup. A wizard is then shown which lets you specify some options with which the backup can be started.

 You can find detailed information about Windows Task Scheduler in the Windows help (call it with Start → Help → tab Index, search term Task Scheduler).
