Using AT Command to run job "At System Startup"

I'm in the process of rolling out some house keeping scripts to some of my
servers. I want these scripts to run "At System Startup". I know how to
manually create the jobs through Scheduled Tasks by I want to be able to
create the jobs using the AT command.

Does anyone know how to schedule a job to run "At System Startup" using the
AT command?

Cheers,

Kevin

Not sure about how to schedule it, but why not use a startup script in a
group policy instead?

At.exe is a legacy command. You should use schtasks.exe instead:

schtasks.exe /create /?
