Maintenance in windows 8 always gets delayed

Hello

I have recently upgraded to windows 8 pro and very looking forward to the feature of automatic maintenance. Interview starts, but seems to be never complete I always get the message than automatic maintenance got delayed even if I leave the laptop (HP Envy) on without interaction and powers set high so no shutdown occurs. Any ideas what maintenance task want to run and did not complete?

Advice and support are much appreciated.

Best wishes

Joachim

Launch the task manually to resolve it.

-With an administrator account, open Task Scheduler.

-Go to the task: Microsoft-> Windows-> TaskScheduler-> regular maintenance.

-Right click-> properties.

-Configuration-> allows you to run the task manually (don't know the English label, is 1). If you click on I accept, the operation fails, you need to change anything else.

-Conditions-> start task only... inactivity-> and set it to 1 minute. By default is 0, and it is an incorrect configuration of a task. Click on accept.

-Right click-> Run.

I don't know why, if you use the activity center to run it manually, the message "Delayed" is not off, but if you run manually from the Task Scheduler, it does.

"Rejected" is normal, you must allow "turn on computer" for regular maintenance and doing all the work manually. But really, you must configure this (turning on computer) in the activity center and leave the "Maintenance Configurator" task (you can only see it with an administrator account) to do all the work. It has different behaviors depending on the computer, that is in my desktop computer, it configures the task of regular Maintenance to turn on the computer, while in my laptop it configures Idle enabled maintenance and does not define the 'tour on computer' on the task of regular Maintenance, to make it work (not a regular maintenance, but maintenance Idle runs the same process) when I close sesion and let the computer turns off after 30 minutes through the management of feeding.

I have "refused" on my laptop because it does not really the maintenance tasks (as it is turned off), but it runs the maintenance through the Maintenance of Idle Task.

So do what I say before (the regular Maintenace manually run) then the 'delayed' message going off and then leave the task of Maintenance configurator to do the job. I did this and not have seen the message "delayed" once again, I guess that's a rare case.

    Hi JohnRobertsonVS,

    Method 1

    Refer to the Microsoft article to download and install Windows Help program (WinHlp32.exe), check to see if it helps.

    I can not open Help files that require the Windows Help program (WinHlp32.exe)

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/917607

    Method 2

    Try the method below and see if it helps.

    a. Open a command prompt window and run the following command:

    regsvr32 msxml3.dll

    b. Press ENTER.

    Note: To open a command prompt window, click Start, click programs, accessories principally made, right click Guest and then click run as administrator.

    Method 3

    If the previous step fails then I suggest that scan you SFC on the computer that would be a corrupt system file search.

    The analysis may take some time, so be patient. Windows allows to fix corrupt or missing files it finds. If the information of the installation CD is required to fix the problem, you may be asked to insert your Windows Vista installation CD.

    Hello

    The SVCHOST. EXE is connected to many different processes and it is not uncommon to be asked to run a number of times.  As long as Svchost.exe is requested in the system32 folder is not the issue.

    Method 1

    In many cases this would happen because of security software installed on the computer.

    I suggest you disable the security software installed on the computer and check.

    Disable the anti-virus software

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/disable-antivirus-software

    Method 2

    If the previous step fails, then it may be due to infections of virus or malware on the computer, I would say that you scan and remove all infections from the computer and check.

    The scan below only works on the 32-bit version of Windows
