  Hello syncere99,

  1. What is the user account in the Task Scheduler are you for the work you are trying to use the Task Scheduler?

  The error code indicates that the user account that was used to create the job no longer exists. This could be because the user account is deleted. I suggest that you remove and re-create a job and check if you have the same problem.

  Thank you

• Can not find the task in the Task Scheduler

  I created a fundamental task to connect to an ad - hoc network whenever I boot my laptop with Vista Home Premium 32-bit.  I don't want that to happen and I deleted the network tries to delete the task.  When I open the Task Scheduler, I don't see my task listed.  I made sure 'show hidden tasks '.  I know that the task runs as I continue to receive errors not being to find the ad hoc network.

  I created a new task of fundamental task, called 'test' starts just the calc program and it shows in the list of tasks.

  Any help?

  As others have found, if you change the name of your computer, scheduled tasks that have been associated with a specific user account (like the logon trigger, such as the credentials for the job and so forth) will no longer appear in the list of scheduled tasks. Scheduled tasks displays the message "an error has occurred for task xxxx. Error message: the specified account name is not valid. "The same thing happens if you delete a user account that is named in a scheduled task.
   
  The reason for the problem is that the computer name part of the account name (for example, "mycomputer\myaccount"), and so if a part of the name is not valid, the associated account is no longer recognized. Unfortunately, given that the scheduled tasks will not display the task entry broken, you cannot fix it directly.
   
  The tasks themselves are defined in XML files in plain text stored in \windows\system32\tasks. The files have the same name as their entries in scheduled tasks.
   
  If a task is not desired, you can simply delete the corresponding file from \windows\system32\tasks.
   
  If you want to restore a task, you must change the computer name and/or account name everywhere wherever he is in the job file. But, you can just edit the file in place to solve the problem. Scheduled task detects that the file has been modified externally and even once will not use or display.
   
  I managed to solve the problem by following these steps:

  1. Move the file to the task entry broken of the \windows\system32\tasks in another case. You want to move it, copy it not - file must be put out \windows\system32\tasks. You can do this by using Windows Explorer or move the command in a command prompt window.
  2. Using Notepad, open the file in its new location. Set the name of the computer or the name of the account as it happens and save the file. Repeat steps 1 and 2 for all other tasks of problem.
  3. Open scheduled tasks, or select the menu Action, refresh. It should be no error message now, given that the task of the problem has been removed.
  4. On the Action menu, use the import command to locate the edited file. This will restore the scheduled task.
  5. Test the restored task by opening and then run. Once everything works, you can remove older versions of the file task as you had moved it. Repeat steps 4 and 5 for any other task edited file.

• How to use the Task Scheduler to send an email

  I have Windows Live Mail + Windows 7

  I want my computer to send an email to someone on his own. I opened the Task Scheduler and creates a new task using the Task Scheduler 'send and send '. The problem is that the program asks only me who he is, which comes from the e-mail and how to use smtp server... He doesn't ask for my mail server login and user name, so in theory it would be rejected... and when it comes to send the message, now it does nothing without any error message.

  I have 2 settings of e-mail in Windows Live Mail accounts but how do I know the Task Scheduler program which includes use of e-mail and how to connect to the account to send it?

  best,

  Charlie

  This task seems to be used only in limited circumstances where a local Windows based SMTP server is available and security credentials are already established.  There is an interesting discussion about this in
  http://social.technet.Microsoft.com/forums/en-us/winservergen/thread/f087c57c-57b8-4c7f-ba2a-feb04c51f5ba

  One of the links posted http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/WindowsServer2003/Library/IIS/e4cf06f5-9a36-474b-ba78-3f287a2b88f2.mspx?mfr=true indicate a possible way to do so by implementing a service SMTP with IIS, but many (I think that most) ISPS block Port 25 and who would probably be a problem.

  It looks like using a 3rd party to contact the external mail server might be the best bet.

  Thanks for your reply, but I'm looking to make use of the 'send an Email' task which included in Task Scheduler... is something that has been there for a while and I've never understood how it would work... I open the Task Scheduler, create a "fundamental task" and click 'send', but I is not even asking me my user name or password? only the smtp server and the email I want to use!

• When I open the Task Scheduler, I get a message error «an error has occurred for task realupgradelogontasks...» »

  When I open the Task Scheduler, I get the following error message:

  an error has occurred for the realupgradelogontasks-1-5-21-2172834406-3963835389-1001 task. error message: the specified account name is not valid. What this means and how do I get rid of the error message?

  Windows 7 Home Edition Premium does not the local security policy. I didn't know that you have the version of the operating system.

  However, the error you get for realupgradelogontasks is RealPlayer. You can uninstall RealPlayer and reinstall to see if that will remove from TaskScheduler option to update.

  If this isn't the case, then check with RealPlayer for the taking in charge of this issue.

  Thank you

• Can I stop or restart the Task Scheduler service from the command prompt in Windows 2008 service?

  I'm on Server 2008. I have a scheduled task that is not working properly. I went to Services, and I see that it is configured to start automatically and it is actually being run. The problem is that I can't stop, pause, or restart the service. Y at - there a command I can run that can stop or restart the service?

  Why not with the right button of the job itself in the Task Scheduler, and then stop it?

  There are several methods to stop the Task Scheduler service that. Here's one of them:

  1. Create a task scheduled, called 'StopScheduler' as follows:
     -Triggering factor: at boot time
     -Command: sc.exe
     -Settings: time stop
     -User: System
     -Run with the highest privileges.
  2. Right click on the task of StopScheduler, and then click Run.
  3. Solve your tasks.
  4. Restart the Task Scheduler.
  5. Disable or remove the task StopScheduler.

  Note also that this forum focuses on the issue of Windows 7 in a domestic environment. There are dedicated forums for Server 2008.

• After creating a task, it is not listed in the Task Scheduler Library.

  Hello

  I created a system task to the system log. It was supposed to send an email to me whenever the event is logged.
  After saving it, I wanted to get to the Task Scheduler Library, but it has not been listed. I tried to create the task again, but it is said that a task with the same name already exists. The event took place, and when I looked at the status of the task, it shows the name of the task with the result of success.
  How can I remove / edit the task when I can't? Help appreciated.
  Thanks in advance

• Need the command line to restore the system to the Task Scheduler in Windows 7

  The task in the Task Scheduler to run the regular restore points has been removed. I need to re-create the task.

  I know that all settings other than the delivery of the program and options. That's what I need.

  Hello ITGIRL17,

  Thanks for posting on the Microsoft answers Forum.

  Configure your task under your administrator account.
  Then go to the folder with the batch file and ADD on control for the folder administrator permissions and each of the files in batches.
  If the batch files write data, then the target for the task should ALSO have all explicit permissions.
  Now try to run the Task Scheduler task.

  Also check the information from the following link and look specifically at Brian Vandemark Sommaire steps on 2 September.

  Hi MK_806,

  You can try to scan the file system [SFC] checker on the computer that will replace missing or corrupt files & check if the problem persists.

  For more information, you can consult the following link.

  How to use the System File Checker tool to fix the system files missing or corrupted on Windows Vista or Windows 7

  Check if there is information in Event Viewer which may help us to solve the problem:

  What are the information contained in the logs of the event (Event Viewer)?
