Unfortunately, under the features pending implementation:
Meaning that currently we do not have that feature. I have a couple of features that I simply use SetTimer checking the time to decide whether or not they activate, which as far as I know is the only current way.Add scheduling by extending SetTimer, e.g. daily at a certain time, etc.

If you don´t want to use SetTimer,
you could try out the task-scheduler of windows.

Something like this should work, as long as you start it before midnight on the day you want it to do something.
Time = 2:00 ; time - HH24:MM
T := 86400 - (SubStr(A_Now,-5,2)*60 + SubStr(A_Now,-3,2))*60 + SubStr(A_Now,-1,2) + (RegExReplace(Time,"^[0-9]{1,2}:([0-9]{2})$","$1") + RegExReplace(Time,"^([0-9]{1,2}):[0-9]{2}$","$1")*60)*60
SetTimer, DoSomething, % T*1000 ; DoSomething at "Time"

Could it can pass the first time to run?Unfortunately, under the features pending implementation:

Who are you body? That's exactly what I want and qqq so much!Something like this should work, as long as you start it before midnight on the day you want it to do something.
Time = 2:00 ; time - HH24:MM T := 86400 - (SubStr(A_Now,-5,2)*60 + SubStr(A_Now,-3,2))*60 + SubStr(A_Now,-1,2) + (RegExReplace(Time,"^[0-9]{1,2}:([0-9]{2})$","$1") + RegExReplace(Time,"^([0-9]{1,2}):[0-9]{2}$","$1")*60)*60 SetTimer, DoSomething, % T*1000 ; DoSomething at "Time"

StringMid,MC,A_Now,11,2
StringMid,HC,A_Now,9,2
DL := (60-MC+(25-HC)*60)*60000
If (A_Hour > 1 And A_Hour < 7)
{
Shutdown 5
}
Sleep %DL%
Shutdown 5 Now I use such code and it works well.

based on some code I found in this thread, I created my own timer: if you specify a time in the future, it will count down to that time and launch. If you specify a time already passed for today, it will add 24hours so it can run at the specified time tomorrow.
; Time Registration
#Persistent
#SingleInstance,force
REGISTER_FUTURE:
TNowHour := SubStr(A_Now,-5,2)
TNowMin := SubStr(A_Now,-3,2)
TNowSec := SubStr(A_Now,-1,2)
TNowInSec := ((TNowHour*60 + TNowMin) * 60 + TNowSec)
TParamHour := RegExReplace(timeParam,"^([0-9]{1,2}):[0-9]{2}$","$1")
TParamMin := RegExReplace(timeParam,"^[0-9]{1,2}:([0-9]{2})$","$1")
TParamInSec := (TParamHour*60 + TParamMin) * 60
delayInSec := 0
If (TParamInSec > TNowInSec) {
;now : 9u00
;to run: 9u05
;delay = 5min = 9u05 - 9u00
delayInSec := TParamInSec - TNowInSec
} else {
; now : 9u05
; to run: 9u00
; delay = 24u - 5min = 86400 sec - (9u05 - 9u00)
delayInSec := 86400 - ( TNowInSec - TParamInSec)
}
SetTimer, REGISTER_NOW, % delayInSec*-1000 ; convert to millisec and make negative to denote only run once
TrayTip, Timer configured, Start in %delayInSec%sec at %TParamHour%:%TParamMin%
;MsgBox Timer configured in: %delayInSec% sec at %TParamHour%:%TParamMin%
return
DISABLE_FUTURE:
SetTimer, REGISTER_NOW, Off
return
REGISTER_NOW:
;add code to be executed at exact time you provided
return

in my previous post, I should have added:
timeParam should contain the exact time at witch the timer should be exectued, in format HH:MM

I'm trying to run this modified timer, but setting timeParam doesn't seem to work right. The way I interpret your instructions, I should put a time like 19:45, or like 1945, or maybe like 19.45. I tried the former and got the error that a ":" is missing its "?". It accepted times of the form '0600', or '0'.
But then with a time that is supposed to be 1 minute in the future, it says the alarm will go off in "218846 seconds" at "0604:0604". Same issue with "06.33:06.33".

error := 19:45 ; Invalid - two numbers separated by : operator. okay := "19:45" ; Quoted string in an expression. okay = 19:45 ; Literal (non-expression) assignment.
