Hi all,
I am new to powershell and I am stuck for code which should process the following:
If time is 5:00 PM
{
send Email
}
I am sorry, but, I just can not do that.

Patch reliability is unclear. Unless you have an immediate, pressing need to install a specific patch, don't do it. |

Don’t quite understand what you are attempting to do. Are you wanting:
a) the script to wait until 5PM and then send an email?
b) if the script is running, and it is 5PM, send an email
c) run the script at 5PM; the script send an email (this is best handled via the Windows scheduler)
My guess is (a), but each one requires slightly different coding, which makes it difficult to answer (and I’m too lazy to provide you with all three answers…)
