Writing script to auto restore from backup daily at specific time

Hello, I hope everyone is having a wonderful day.

I am writing for advice on what approach to take to automate a key function in my system. I have a remote system that produces a self-contained backup in the ".SQL" format. I have a MySQL server running as a Windows process on my desktop machine.

Each morning, I must log into a specific FTP site, navigate to a specific folder, and download this file. Next, I log into my MSQL Workbench and restore my server from a self-contained file and wait about 40 minutes. This self-contained file drops at the same time every morning and so I would like to script this process out so it is done automatically at the same time every day so that by the time I need to use the data during the day, it is already the most current.

So, my question is: what should I use to start this script? Powershell with WinSCP, Python, C#, etc? I am looking for the method/language first before I dive into how to accomplish this task. Please advise, thank you.
