Create console app, place it somewhere on your machine ,and create event in Task Scheduler and add a trigger when u want to run it.

U can set trigger form another application , you can find answer here:

Creating Scheduled Tasks

Notice , you can't run some random function from your application without running the whole app from Task Scheduler.
