Are you trying to restore the database over the LIVE or restore to a point in time ( from a backup )to a different database so you can do some comparison ?
You may wish to consider restoring the database to a separate database so that you can do specific table updates from the changed data ?!
The other question is ... what is your backup plan ?
do you have Full Backup and then T-Log backups ?
So many questions - but it is important to know what you are doing and what the un-expected results could be and damage that could be done.

SQL Server has a tool built into it called SQL Agent. It runs as a separate service. One of it's uses is to schedule things for SQL Server to do. That's how you can set up a restore to run at a specific time. You just have to know the T-SQL or PowerShell commands to run a restore.
