So, I got some Win10 questions.

is there a scripting environment for Win10 that works like Applescript on MacOS. Anything I can do from file browser to opening and doing things in individual apps I can script with applescript?

Example: Database does query to find any records than need Active Directory updated. if it finds any records it save and excel file from Database. It then calls an Applescript that opens the file in Excel, saves as a MS-Dos CSV, closes Excel, then opens the Active Directory computer share and copies the file into a specific folder. Then it closes the share and quits.

I then remotely open the AD computer run a powershell script that uses that file to update AD. That PS script also makes a new current csv of all the records in AD. Then I can intiate another script on my database that opens the shared connection, downloads the updated csv, then imports the updated data into my database. then again checking for updates.


Another one, is there a backup environment that works like Apple's Time Machine?

All dressed up and off to "The Office" to get my picture took and get the new computer.
