if you run the command at, you'll probably see what's happening.

A) You can't use am/pm -- it thinks it's part of the command to run.
2) I'm pretty sure that "start" can't be used.
C) I think you want it to be interactive with the desktop.

So:

Code: Select all

at 9:00 /interactive "c:\program files\internet explorer\iexplore.exe"
