  • It can be used with a Task Scheduler to download files or directories regularly—on hourly, daily, weekly, or custom schedule basis.
  • Launch Scheduled Task daily, to download files from a remote server and store them into a local storage server using Active Directory user credentials, and inform users via email that new files have arrived.
