What should be in scheduled tasks? In my window xp there is nothing in it, is there something in it?

The only things that should be in scheduled tasks are tasks that you have planned or which were automatically to 3 rd-party applications can be installed (this is often used to implement "automatic update" for applications). *

It is perfectly fine to have no scheduled tasks.

_____________

* You should, however, have a button in the right pane for "Add scheduled task."  If this is missing for some reason, you can always add a task by clicking file > New > scheduled task.

  • Question of scheduled task of IOM

    Hi all
    I have made some changes to my job schduled, compiled and replaced the file in the folder of the IOM/ST after the server has stopped. But somehow the IOM is still running the old scheduled task. I can say that because I can't see the changes is forced or the log messages are written in the log file.

    I checked the class name in the console Design and it is right, that is, I make changes in the correct file of ST. Where can I check and detect the problem. All the world faces this question in the past.

    Make sure that the same class is not present in any other jar to the classpath of IOM.
    Start by checking the JavaTask etc...

    You can write a shell Script that will take the system time and do the comparison if it's more than an hour, you can trigger 'vim - cmd vmsvc/snapshot.create vmid' with the name of snapshot of timestamp.

  • BITSADMIN and scheduled tasks

    Does anyone have experience making bitsadmin more useless in a scheduled task?  It seems to be limited to the use of the command-line connected except for the / create command.  Otherwise, it fails because the user is not connected (will work even if at the request of task if you logged in and 'run now'), but when you are disconnected, the task runs but bitsadmin gives errors like:
    Cannot add file to job - 0x800704dd
    The requested operation was not because the user is not connected to the network.

    The specified service does not exist.

    This behavior even in Xp and S 2008 / Vista.

  • What is the scheduled task ' in * ' (there are a lot of tasks (At25 - At192))

    I use Ccleaner on my desktop and it showed a lot of tasks scheduled with the name 'At' and a number behind them (25-192). They seem to be run by the same file "WQ3203G0.exe", so I was wondering what all these tasks/is this file?

    There is a certain malware (details of which I can't find in my notes) which creates a lot of scheduled tasks in your system, so it seems that your system is currently or has been infected by malware.

    Tell us about your system and run some known malware scanners on request and you can clean up the mess that might be left behind.

    Since the implementation of the Microsoft Answers forum does not ask for any kind of information system when a new question is asked, we know absolutely nothing about your system.  Not knowing the basic information a problem prolongs the frustration and the agony of these issues.

    Thank you MS Answers, allowing the resolution of simple problems as frustrating and a lot of time as possible.

    Provide information on your system, the better you can:

    What is your system brand and model?

    What is your Version of XP and the Service Pack?

    Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Symantec, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, MSE, Panda, Trend Micro, CA, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, Comodo, etc..

    The afflicted system has a working CD/DVD (internal or external) drive?

    You have a genuine XP installation CD bootable, which is the same Service as your installed Service Pack (this is not the same as any recovery CD provided with your system)?

    No matter what you use for malware protection, follow these steps:

    Download, install, update, and make at least an analysis full (not at the same time) with these free malware detection programs:
    SUPERAntiSpyware: (SAS): http://www.superantispyware.com/

    These comprehensive analyses can take some time, but you really need to run.  SAS will probably be just a bunch of Internet tracking cookies, but you can remove them.  Once you have done at least a full analysis, you can do quick scans in the future to save time and save the analyses complete for when you have more time or are really suspicious of an infection of the system.

    They can be uninstalled later if you wish.

  • Switches to scheduled tasks – run the box-

    I try with XP Pro to set a scheduled task to run CHKDSK with the f switch and save the results to a txt file.  I came up with the following to the box Z drive the newspaper in a folder on the D drive, called chkdsklogZ and run to run chkdsk on stor:

    Z:/f/x C:\WINDOWS\system32\chkdsk.exe > 'd:\chkdsklogZ\chkdsk.log '.

    Unfortunately, it does not run.  Any ideas on how to get it to work?

    Of course, it has a system of files and you run chkdsk on it to find and fix file system errors, however the map real cluster is still managed by the host operating system and logical or physical within the .vhd file errors would be fixed when running chkdsk on the drive of the host.

    My guess is that it can be a question of what chkdsk is logical or physical errors first, if chkdsk inside the disk hard virtual find the host probably corrected and the virtual hard disk file system is informed of these changes and retains its integrity, if errors are found when chkdsk is run on the host drive will be corrected the errors and the virtual hard disk file system may experience what whether of a hiccup to a complete failure.

  • services that run via scheduled task

    Hi all

    I am creating a task scheduled to start/stop services. the scheduled task must be run under the service account with minimal rights, as rights of the user or the user rights of maximum power.
    I created the scheduled task running under the account of service with power user rights to stop a service, but unfortunately the task was doing what it suppose to do.
    I did some troubleshooting and investigated as shown below:
    1. I used the runas command to run net stop under the service account that runs the scheduled task, the service is stopped, as it is assumed
    2. I connect to the server using the account service and disconnected (the session will be shown in the disk for the service account) and at the same time open a session to the server with a different account performed the scheduled task, the task does what it is supposed to do. (the service is stopped)
    Note: the scheduled task is set to enabled (scheduled task to run at a specified time)
    3 when I changed the rights on behalf of rights of administrator power user rights service and perform scheduled task, the task runs correctly and does what he must do.
    4. the service was set to be managed by the user with power, which means that if a user opens a session on the server and try to start/stop the service, he will be able to action and is successful.
    my questions will be as shown below:
    1. to start/stop the service via a scheduled task, the service account needs a session to be able to perform the task?
    2 must. the service account the highest privileges to perform the task?
    3. is there a way to avoid to run the scheduled task to run with minimum privileges? What kind of things need to be done.
    Thanks in advance for your answer.

    I would look at the link below.  This should answer all these questions.

  • Scheduled task does not play if already open WMP, trying to avoid manual close

    I'm in a work centre that will make announcements every day on a speaker system that is run by windows media player. I set up a scheduled task to all files that will play, but once the said file is played WMP does not close automatically. This does not seem like a problem, but if nobody closes on WMP, the next scheduled task will not - play which completely defeated the purpose to automate the process and our workers will have to still remember to close WMP 3 or 4 times a day, otherwise nobody gets the announcement.

    I have tried implementing a command line with /play wmplayer start/close c:myfile.wav as an executable file and run it with the Task Scheduler instead of the wav file... it did not work. Namely, the /close function was abandoned with WMP.

    Is it possible that I can continue to use WMP and completely automate this process without the manual close WMP after each scheduled task?

  • Scheduled tasks

    I asked this question in a few forums and no one has yet given me a correct answer, so let me try here:

    What (if any) programs or what should I have in my "scheduled tasks"? I tried scheduling Avast it but has never worked, even with disk cleanup and a few other things. Here's what I have now:

    Apple Software Update (looks like it is running OK, but do I need?)

    Disk Cleanup: never ran

    GoogleUpdateTaskMachineCore (looks like it's OK running, but do I need?)

    GoogleUpdateTaskMachineUA (looks like it's OK running, but do I need?)

    RealUpgradeLogonTaskS-1-5-21-4191468066-1 (looks like it's OK running, but do I need?)

    RealUpgradeScheduledTaskS-1-5-21-4191468066-1 (looks like it's OK running, but do I need?)

    Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    I wouldn't have any of these items in scheduled tasks. You don't need to program Avast - he takes care of himself. If you try to schedule a scan and only have the free version, you will need to buy Avast Pro. What about disk cleanup, here is a link showing how to do a task scheduled for her:

  • Scheduled task runs only if connected (W2k3 server)

    Hello

    This was bugs me for a week now: W2k3 server a customer has a problem to launch a specific scheduled task.

    The task calls first on an application that generates files; Excel is open, then a macro is executed, which saves more than some files; Finally, these files are copied to a UNC path to another server.

    -The permissions on all the files are OK (account used is domain administrator)

    -"Run only if connected" is NOT selected

    -But: Excel displays apparently the first home screen whenever it is opened with this account.

    Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

  • If I disconnect night & let computer programs still run scheduled tasks?

  • How to force the display of user account control to run the scheduled task

    I have User Account Control setting on notify me when a program wants to make changes to my computer (the recommended setting).

User accounts in the program control screen comes up and stays on, ends by closes but ends the program. As I'm not at the computer when running task, I can't cancel the screen. The display ends by disappears, but the program itself does not run.

    So the question is: How can I force screen UAC a program to run without changing the UAC universal computer settings that would allow any program to change my computer without any intervention from me?

    Thanks for your help.

    There is no way around the need for approval of Admin indicated by the parameter of the UAC.

    Reduce the level of UAC would be the only thing you can try, but I understand that this would not be a safe way to proceed for normal operation.
