  • Windows xp Task Scheduler service does not start

    I have a problem with the Task Scheduler in XP SP3 (home edition) service. The service is configured to start automatically, but hangs during startup and the State is 'starting' permanently In this State, I can't start or stop the service manually.  If I disabled the service completely, restart, put it to manual and click Start, I get the following error:

    Unable to start the task on the local computer Scheduler service
    Error 1053: The service did not demand launch or control in a timely

    I am under an administrator with a password account, so that shouldn't be the problem
    The CPP and the services event log work correctly (Autostart value)

    I need to get this service running in order to allow the read-ahead on this pc. Currently the prefetch folder is totally empty the .ini file is missing as well as all the .pf files.

    It's curious.  The ST journal file must be in the Windows folder.

    I downloaded a copy of the file you need on my SkyDrive (everyone has a SkyDrive for file sharing).

    Here is the link to my SkyDrive and you can get the file you need here:

    http://CID-6a7e789cab1d6f39.SkyDrive.live.com/redir.aspx?RESID=6A7E789CAB1D6F39! 311
    When you see the files available for download, you will not see the extension of file (.exe, .dll, .cpl, .sys, etc), but when download you them they will have the right extension.

    You have to put the downloaded files in the correct folders on your system.

    I don't know where to put the file mstask.ini - windows\system32 maybe?  There is no .ini file in the folder inf. so I don't know and you may need to try different places and keep reading...

    I don't think I've never reinstalled TS (but other things) so I did all the instructions on how to do it, but if the installation stops and asks you for a file, at this point, leave the installation 'wait' and then search your HARD drive for the file he wants to (be sure to include the search for hidden and system files too) and if/when you find return to the installation of waiting and fill the void or navigate to the folder where the installation file is enough (point installation where the file is, so it can find the file he wants to) and continue up to the next point.  You may need to do it for multiple files until you get all the way through it and you will see that some are just not on your HARD drive and you need to download.  You can't cancel the installation and start over every time - just work through a single file at a time by pointing the installation to the folder where the file he needs.

    Maybe later, I reinstall my TS service to practice and be able to understand the files he needs and give some better advice about this.

    Comodo may also interfere (I do not use it, but it's possible).  Did you see if your TS will start with disabled Comodo?

    You should also consider the malware, then you might want to start with this:

    Download, install, update and do a full scan with these free malware detection programs:
    Malwarebytes (MMFA): http://malwarebytes.org/
    SUPERAntiSpyware: (SAS): http://www.superantispyware.com/
    They can be uninstalled later if you wish.

  • Event Viewer/Task Scheduler error message

    I get the error message "MMC could not create the snap" in Task Scheduler and Event Viewer. I tried various things, including a reinstallation of the .NET Framework, and nothing seems to solve the problem. Does anyone have any suggestions?

    michiganjoe,
    Thank you for visiting the Microsoft Answers community forum.

    The first thing I would try is to run the System File Checker to see if any system files got corrupted:
    To run the System File Checker tool, follow these steps:
    Click Start and type cmd in the box start the search.
    Right click on cmd in the list programs, and then click Run as administrator.
    If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password or click on continue
    At the command prompt, type the following line and press ENTER:
    sfc/scannow
    When the analysis is complete, test to see if the problem you are experiencing is resolved.

    If this does not work, we need a little more information, the better to help you.  What version of Vista are you using?  When exactly this error happen?  Is that what you see in the event viewer, or you get the error when you try to open the event viewer and Task Scheduler?
    Have changes made to your computer recently, as new hardware or installed software or an update / upgrade to software or drivers?  Have you tried to do a system restore to before the problem came first?
    To restore the operating system to an earlier point in time, follow these steps:
    Click Start, type system restore in the search box, and then click System Restore in the list programs.
    If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password or click on continue.
    In the System Restore dialog box, click on choose a different restore point and then click Next.
    In the list of restore points, click a restore point created before you started having the problem, and then click Next.
    Click Finish.
    The computer restarts and system files and settings are back to the State they were in when the restore point was created.

    Let us know the status of your problem and if we can also provide assistance.

  • Task Scheduler error: "... task: the task image is corrupt or...»

    When I run the Task Scheduler which exactly follows the error message appears in a popup window: ' task32498346 task: the task image is damaged or has been tampered with. " None of the "solutions" I read on internet activity for me. Very detailed solution from Microsoft Support does work for me because the first step is to go to Task Scheduler Library and find the folder in which the corrupted task is in. I carefully searched the whole library, and there is certainly no 'task32498346' in the Task Scheduler Library. I'm not aware of all this causes me problems. Everything seems to work OK. I came just to have stumbled on this because I was curious how the Scheduler works. I looked in Services and Task Scheduler started. Despite do not cause me problems, I know, I want to get rid of this popup error message. Can someone help me, please?

    (Moved to repair and recovery)

    Yes. The Earth is round. Does this have to do with my question?

    -> OK, I'll specify it in detail. You must search for the folder C:\Windows\System32\Tasks of the existence of the file that generates the error message, i.e. task32498346. The file may be hidden.

  • Run a Task Scheduler batch file not working

    I have I have a batch copy file and rename it to a file.  It works fine when double click on it.  I set up to run on Task Scheduler using the wizard of Basic Actions.  To test the method, I did a simple batch file that displays the date and time and stored in the same folder as my desired batch file.  The Scheduler runs the simple bat very well.  When I try to launch the bat copy/rename file, it doesn't do anything, but I do not see the flash blue and see that the planner lists the task completed successfully.

    Per a suggestion on this site tried to change the setting to "use if the user is logged in or not."  When I click on the box, I get a few indecipherable message on restrictions and password empty.  It is a single-user computer (w7 64-bit), and as far as I know, is free of passwords and restrictions...  Any help much appreciated, I have no hair left to tear.
