Delay Operation of wsus downloads

Hi, I was wondering if there is a way I can delay operation of WSUS Generator until after midnight when I am asleep.
I have a greater speed and bandwidth after midnight.
I had thought of task scheduler but can't figure how to "press" the start button once I initiate the program.
Thanks in advance for any help.
Regards

You don't need to press the start button since UpdateGenerator just calls DownloadUpdates.cmd which does all the work. In UpdateGenerator enable the option Only create collection script, then in Task Scheduler point the task to the generated script. You can also adapt the created script to your needs.
