Look at the ?Startup help page in R.  It shows a couple of ways to have
code run automatically when R starts (and can depend on which folder R
starts from).  So you could have the windows task scheduler run R and use
the above to set the script to run.

Also look at ?Rscript for a way to run a script in batch mode, you can
schedule a run of Rscript on a specific script file.

Within R there is the tclTaskSchedule function in the tcltk2 package.  If
you leave R running then that function can set some code to run at a given
time, or at a regular interval.
