Unfortunately, unless someone else already does so, you have to read and understand in C++ as that's what MS used in their documentation. Starting page is here (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/taskschd/task-scheduler-start-page), while an example is here (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/taskschd/time-trigger-example--c---), you can just replace the notepad with whatever you want and change the schedule accordingly.

C++
No it is plain C.
No, it's a C compliant C++. That's the reason why the documentation mentions C++ consistently instead of C or even C/C++ (well, this one still appears sometimes, but maybe an overlook or old writing).
