If you're using Windows, the Windows Task Scheduler should do what you need
here... Start Settings Control Panel Scheduled Tasks Add Scheduled
Task. It will walk you through selecting the application to run (either
choose the Excel.exe file with your workbook as a command-line argument, or
just select your workbook as the file to run) and the schedule (one-time or
recurring).

If you are using Windows, then try the Task Manager in the Control Panel.
His job is to launch stuff at a specified time.

Or

Open a Dos window and at the "DOS prompt" type "HELP AT"
There you will discover the AT command which will allow you launch commands
at a specified time.

There are some sites on the web which explain the AT command and give
examples that may be useful.
Here's one
