Thread moved to Windows OS as it is not ASP related, Please post in the correct forum.

I think you have your wires crossed here CRON is a time-based scheduling service in Unix-like computer operating systems.

Unless you have a emulator installed you wont be able to run a CRON job on a Windows PC.

What are you trying to schedule.

Have a look at your FTP software it may have scheduled tasks so you could set it up to automatically upload the required file every 5 minutes.

What FTP software do you use?

Another option would be to look into creating a batch file that uploads via Windows FTP and then schedule the batch file in Windows Scheduler.
