Hourly screenshot taker

Question

I'd like to take a screenshot on an hourly basis (with an option for as short as minutely, or long as daily would be nice).

And automatically delete previous day's/week's screenshots. It'd be nice if I could actually choose between the two (daily vs weekly) but if not that's fine too. Or it should delete based on the folder size, i.e. delete oldest screenshots if overall folder size exceeds XX amount. Just any one of the "automatic deletion" methods would be fine.

It should save in a local folder.

Screenshot should be of entire screen. Although not necessary but if it lets me mask or crop a certain area that'd be nice too.

Also it be nice if it had the ability to sleep (not take screenshots) when there's no user activity (time since last mouse movement >~ XX sec)

Is there any such software that does this?

OS: Windows.
