On certain scheduled time I want my Windows 10 computer to logon automatically and open the desktop without any interaction from human.
I have no problem making schedule to log off the computer.

some computers support scheduled power-on in their BIOS settings. once you have enabled automatic Windows logon, then the scheduled power-on setting in BIOS actually can make automatic logon.
> Did you try Task Scheduler (made for this)
i guess Task Scheduler only works after Windows is loaded and running. :) therefore it can't be use for powering up the computer.

Maggi - Is the computer running and logged off? Or Shut down? If the former, Task Scheduler supports running in a logged off state.
If shut down, you need Wake on LAN or like variable in BIOS as mentioned earlier.

It is running and logged off and I don't know what command to run with the scheduler to log the computer on. I use schedule to run "shutdown /l" to log it off.
