TASK SCHEDULER

TASK SCHEDULER

When you attempt to assign a TASK to run, do the following, when I click on CREATE a BASIC TASK

Task Scheduler service is not available or the folder does not exist. Check that the service I have running and that the folder exists.

Hi PC31,.

I have a few questions so that we can better help you.

Have you ever been able to create a task?
Something has changed on your system lately?  For example; Have you installed new software or updates?

You might want to try to restart the Task Scheduler service.  To restart the service, follow the instructions below.

  • Click on the round to Start
  • Type in the box start the search services
  • Click Servicesand select run as administrator of
    If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password or click continue
  • Right click on the Task Scheduler Service and select Restart

If this does not resolve the problem, you can use the System File Checker tool.  Please follow the instructions below.

To run the System File Checker tool, follow these steps:

Click on the Start ORB and type cmd in the box start the search

  • Right-click cmd in the programs list, and then select run as administrator.
  • If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password or click continue
  • At the command prompt, type the following line and press ENTER:

sfc/scannow

Windows Vista will now scan all system files and verify their integrity, replace all the files with which it detects a problem.

If none of this helps, please let us know.  Thank you.

  • My "Task Scheduler" will not display the running tasks since the update to Firefox yesterday.

    When I use my task scheduler and select "Display all running tasks", I get "unavailable". The task successfully registered last history was immediately before moving to Firefox 23. What you've done!

    I uninstalled Firefox and installed after a reboot, and now everything works again with 23 installed Firefox. The real shame is that most users don't even know enough to even check their planner of tasks or the event viewer for the problems.

  • Cannot enable Task Scheduler

    I have a HP Pavilion MS227 with Windows 7 Home Premium. Try to activate the Task Scheduler, so I can defragment. When I right click on the Task Scheduler in system, starting services appears not highlighted so I can enable it. I ran antivirus and software anti malware programs with no luck. Any suggestions?

    Hello

    I suggest you ensure that all your Services have the boot by default settings, but you need another computer running Windows 7 64 bit to export the registry data of.

    Another method to do this would be to download the file at the link below (downloads are towards the bottom of the page) and then merge it with your registry as described in the article.  Note:  Generally, it is not a good idea to add registry files downloaded from the internet, but these are good - you can also check the entries that will be merged beforehand uncompressing the file, then open it in Notepad.

  • Task Scheduler task shows as completed successfully, but nothing happened

    I have some .bat files I created added to my task scheduler on our server at the fire every day from 05:00.  Tasks run a series of SQL commands and a find and replace the application third for updating a MySQL database that we use for a web application.  SQL event on demand are not an option for us.

    When I run the task manually it works fine (I'm an administrator has full permissions), either by double-clicking the .bat file, either by selecting the task in the Task Scheduler task by clicking on 'run '.

    Tasks have been reportedly shot every day for more than a week and all history journals say the operation completed successfully, but when I check the MySQL database, that nothing has actually happened.

    To add to the confusion, what is happening on 2 3 .bat files that I wrote.  One works perfectly, not.

    I have the defined task to "Run if the user is logged in or not", and "Run with the highest privileges" and our server, Windows 2012 R2.

    My apologies if I'm missing something obvious, I am a JavaScript/PHP web developer, who was lifted in the server environment and, although most of this is logical on a base level for me, a lot of nuances are lost.

    Thanks in advance for any help.

  • Task Scheduler in Windows Server 2008 Enterprise Edition

    We have Windows Server 2008 Enterprise Edition by using the Task Scheduler to run 4 tasks on a daily basis. Recently, we have applied the Microsoft updates and restarted the server, and now the scheduled tasks do not work with the field. It says logon failure: unknown username and password incorrect (0x8007052E). The domain administrator credentials (or domain administrator credentials), we applied initially used but it still does not work, but it works with the local administrator account. A new task was created by using the credentials of the domain and the task could not start showing the username and password wrong. I studied unsuccessfully Microsoft Knowledge base. Please advise on how we solve this problem?

    For assistance, please ask for help in the Forums Microsoft TechNet for Windows Server.

    Thank you & good luck.

  • Task Scheduler, Win Server 2008 - connected or not 2147942403 error

    I created a task scheduler with the Security Option to "run if the user is logged in or not."  But he fails even though I am connected with an error value: 2147942403.  If I change the Sec Opt to "Run only when the user is connected", the task will run flawless.

    I am a user (not administrator) on a Windows Server 2008.  The user name & pass are configured correctly.  Is that my Admin has to do to fix this?

  • Error 1068: Task Scheduler cannot start, impossible defragmentation

    I tried to defrag my sister's computer and ran into a problem.  Defragmentation wouldn't because Task Scheduler would not start.  Long story short: operating system Windows 7.  My attempts to solve the problem, there are messages that I continued to receive:

    "Windows would not start the Scheduler Service on the Local computer.

    and

    "ERROR 1068: the dependency service or group could start."

    Please, I need help.  Any ideas?  Do you need more information?

    Thank you in advance,

    Hi Laura,

    Open windows control panel, open administrative tools, and then open Services.  First check both of these services.

    Remote procedure (RPC) call  This service should show started and startup type must be automatic.

    Windows event log                    This service should show started and startup type must be automatic.

    If you need to change the settings of the two services above, right-click on the service and select Properties.  Select Automatic from the drop-down list and click on apply.  Once finished, click on the Start button to see if the service starts successfully.


    Task Scheduler                            This service should show started and startup type must be automatic.

    If you have made changes, see if the disk defragmentation utility will now work.

    Let me know if this does not help the issue.

    Kind regards

  • When I open Task Scheduler and click on MSE for planning, I get the following warning. General Page initializatin has no 0 x 80070534

    Original title: Task Scheduler

    When I open Task Scheduler and click on MSE for planning, I get the following warning.

    General Initializatin page failed,

    The specific error is:

    0 x 80070534: no mapping between account names and security IDS was done. Year error has occurred trying to retrieve task account informaiton. You can continue to edit the subject of the task, but will not be able to change task account information.

    I then press the ok button and it goes to the task, schedule, and the settings box.

    When I check in scheduled tasks, to see if they ran as planned, the last run time column NEVER said, and the status column indicates

    COULD NOT START.

    In the morning, I always get this error message:

    A task could not run...

    Do you know what I'm doing wrong? Can it be fixed?

    Thank you Tim

    Is there a password the user account in which the task is scheduled?  You cannot schedule a task to run under a user without password account.
