View 2 Replies View RelatedSetting Up A Scheduled Task?
Feb 24, 2010I am trying to use the free program FreeFileSync to do a nightly back up of some files and have had some trouble setting up the job. The syntax for the job would be "FreeFileSync myjob.batch" run from the utilities location.I set the trigger to 2am each day, with the action to start the program from its location with the batch job file which is located in the same folder being the argument. Under conditions tab I set it so that it will wake the computer up to run the task and set it so that if another instance is running it will run in parallel in the settings tab. With that, the task did not run?

May 21, 2012I have a Win7 Ultrabook. I'm using Areca backup software to backup my personal data.I created a Scheduled Task to run my backup weekly.I set it so that it would wake from sleep to run the task. But I'm having trouble finding a setting to tell it to return to sleep if it woke itself up. Is it possible to do so?In the alternative, is there something I can insert in my batch file (the scheduled task runs a bat file) to tell my book to enter sleep mode?

Nov 29, 2012Recently I used Task Scheduler to program my laptop to shut down at a certain time every night. Tonight I decided that I wanted to delete the scheduled shutdown, but I can't figure out how to do it. I've followed the directions under Delete a Task, which instruct me to to click Delete in the Actions pane. The problem is that I don't see a Delete option in the Actions pane.

Windows 7 Scheduled Task Won't Run After Being Altered By SYSTEM
Jan 27, 2012I have a sched task that I authored using my user account that I know from running manually works. The problem I'm having is that at some point Windows 7 is deleting and recreating this task, and doing it incorrectly. Consequently the task won't run at its scheduled time.The most important change it is making is that it's setting Run As user to SYSTEM instead of my user account. I know this won't work this way from manual runs.Looking at the task history I can see what Windows 7 is doing, I just don't know why, or how to stop it. Every time I create this task Windows will eventually go through this sequence of events, resulting in a task that is different than the one I created:
1. Task registration deleted
2. Task registered
3. Task registration updated

Run Scheduled Task Or GPO When Windows 7 Sleep Mode Triggered?
Jul 9, 2012I'd like to launch a custom batch file when my computer goes into sleep mode. I would like to launch this batch through a GPO or task scheduler. I've tested using task scheduler and the power event ID for sleep mode but it seems the event triggers too late for the application to run and the computer just continues into sleep mode. I could create a scheduled task to trigger a minute before the idle time-out for sleep mode but this doesn't work if I actively put the computer into sleep mode. Any way to do this?

View 1 Replies View RelatedTaskeng.exe Suddenly Showing Up As Window When Run A Scheduled Task
Oct 14, 2012Since I built this computer in 2010 I've had a scheduled task which runs a VBS script to remind me to take my tablets each morning. Until the last few days, only one element was visible from this task, the message box spawned by the VBS script.However, in the last few days, I also get a taskeng.exe window appearing at exactly the same time as the message box. The window is labelled taskeng.exe, has a VBS scripting host icon and the content of the window is pure black.If I terminate taskeng.exe in Task Manager or click OK in the VBS message box, both the VBS script and that black window disappear.I have no idea what might have caused taskeng.exe to only appear in this situation, because MSI AfterBurner also uses it to start the app during user login and it doesn't appear for that.

View 1 Replies View RelatedEruNT Lives Again, On Windows 7/Vista -- Without 'Scheduled Task' UAC-hack?
Aug 14, 2012This (widely acclaimed) Windows Registry backup utility restores the security feature Microsoft discontinued with Windows 98SE and Windows ME: the ability to retain full daily automatic backups of a user-determined number of registries, as the first (and it should not be the only) line of defense in recovering a 'hosed' system, from registry corruption.Starting with Windows Vista, there has been a compatiblity problem, as noted by Lars Hederer, the utility's author:Quote:Question: Do ERUNT and NTREGOPT run on Windows 7? Answer: ERUNT and NTREGOPT in their current versions 1.1j are still compatible with Windows 7, but as in Vista, they will only work correctly if you turn off User Account Control in Windows' Control Panel (move the slider to the lowest position). ... Future versions of ERUNT and NTREGOPT will of course have these issues fixed. Keep an eye on my homepage for updates. Unfortunately, there have been no "future versions", so users have devised work-arounds, the best known being creating a scheduled-shortcut to the .exe that runs the daily backup, to prevent it from 'hanging' and failing, when Windows' silent prompt (are you sure you really want to run this .exe file, that you just clicked on?) gets no human response. Many users are reluctant to take the author's advice, to just shut off UAC, although this does fix it.
I (hope!) I have found a simpler solution, suitable even for the non-hacker.Install and run this small (85KB) utility, to put UAC in the 'Quiet Mode' -- as shown in the illustration. You should have a Windows Shortcut for eruNT's autoback.exe in the StartUp directory. First, set MS Windows' UAC slider wherever you wish. Then turn on 'Quiet Mode' in the linked utility. Then exit, and don't look again at the UAC slider, as a Windows-bug makes it show an erroneous indication (carefully read the utility's documentation on this point).Just make sure that the shortcut to autoback.exe is set to run its target in Administrative mode, and then set the Target-line as:[CODE]

Feb 13, 2012I have written a batch file to run every afternoon, using Task Manager.When I was running WIndows XP, the Task Manager (or it may have been the batch file itself) opened a new DOS window whilst it was running so that I could see everything was working correctly.

View 7 Replies View RelatedTask Scheduler Fails When Running VB Compile EXE?
Jul 7, 2010I created an exe with Visual Studio 2010 to automate the execution of a 2nd program.This exe requires 2 command line arguments.When I run this exe from a Short cut with the arguments defined everything works as desired.However, when I make a Scheduled Task to run this exe, the 2nd program does not get run and I get various results in the Last Run Status - most of the time the result is 0x41306.The task is set up as follows:
- run whether user is logged in or not
- run with highest privileges
- configure for Windows Vista / Windows Server 2008 although using Windows 7 / Windows Server 2008 R2 does not work either
- the schedule is set up and enabled
- the actions point to the exe create by VB
- the only conditions set is to wake computer to run
- settings are allow task to be run on demand / stop task if running more than 3 days / if task does not end when requested force it to stop
From the task history I get the following logs:
Task Scheduler successfully completed task "Netro-Wirecast-464-1100" , instance "{54a20687-ad3b-405a-a7a9-2c89cb43ce76}" , action "C:UsersSunday ServicesDocumentsVisual Studio 2010ProjectsWireCastLauncherWireCastLauncherinReleaseWireCastLauncher.exe" with return code 3762504530.

IE8 Multiple Iexplore.exe Running In Task Manager
Apr 14, 2009Anyone noticed that IE8 runs multiple iexplore.exe in Task Manager?
And by the way did you notice IE8 behaves differently in that respect when installed on WindowsXP as opposed to Windows 7?
WindowsXP copies of iexplore can use up to 50,000K and every copy uses quite a bit of memory.
Windows 7 copies of iexplore only use about 5-15K.
While using IE8 in WindowsXP I thought I had a malware program running by it using so much memory and exhausted myself trying to run all kinds of scans to root out the offending program only to realize it was IE8 itself. When I uninstalled IE8 and went back to IE7, the behavior stopped.
Just something interesting that might save others the frantic search to root out adware. I suppose the bottom line is DO NOT USE IE8 on WinXP.
