There are a lot of programs /utilities to schedule events. I've never
done any but I keep seeing them on download sites. You might just want
to google 'scheduler'. But anything you download is going to be as
'insecure' or open to the public as windows scheduler. To run a
program at x time of day, you have to have some sort of monitor program
waiting. Task manager proves that with all the update programs, like
nero update manager, adobe reader updater. Etc. You can't hide
life. But for every rule there usually are exceptions. Hang in.

The Task Scheduler ***does*** allow you to schedule events by
specific dates.

Task Scheduler can run program in the future and run it only once.

That depends entirely on the program that you run. If it doesn't
provide its own window (hidden or visible) for its stdout then you'll
probably have to run it in a command shell whose console will show up
while the program runs. If the program was written using Win32 API then
it can decide if its output goes to a window (which could be hidden) or
if it even issues any output.
