cron.php missing in my root folder

[BFranken]

I downloaded Magento ver 2.1.3 and I tried to configure cron jobs and I come to notice there is no cron.php file in my root folder, while I read everywhere it should be in there.

And yes, I installed Magento to my root folder.

Hi @BFranken,

In order to run cron jobs in Magento2 you have to execute shell command:

<project_root>/bin/magento cron:run
