Hi Folks,
Is there a way to have a Power Automate Desktop version Flow start at a specific time of the day? I'm completely stumped as a newbie on how to accomplish this as a Power Automate Action. Thanks in advance for any and all help provided.

I think I might have found a solution using Windows Scheduler in a similar post with the excellent detailed reply provided by arnatalia. I'll need to try it out first thing tomorrow morning to see if it works.

Hi Roger,
with Premium License you can schedule a Power Automate Cloud flow to start The Desktop flow.
With workarounds you can run a permanent Desktop Flow that loops endless and runs the Desktop Flows when you want, because for attended flows the PC needs to be unlocked.
Hi Gidi - Thanks for your reply. I've abandoned my idea of using Power Automate and will need to code a solution in Python instead.
