title: How can I write a python script to automatically copy files at a specified time without manual user execution?
body: <p>I'm looking to write an automatic file copying script that copies files from one directory to another at a specified time (i.e. Fridays at 4pm). I can think of a few ways to approach this but was wondering if anyone has ever tried something similar to this and if python would be able to "run itself" at a given time, if not executed directly by a user. </p>
  
  <p>If this is not possible, does anyone here know of a better software/platform to use?</p>
  
  <p>Thank you!</p>
