Answer

You may execute a php on windows machine thru the command line:

 “php c:[directory][folder][phpscript].php”.

JavaScript
 
 “php c:[directory][folder][phpscript].php”.​

So if you want the machine to execute it every day at a specified time, please put the command into the windows scheduler and set the time.
