Why a scheduled task in Windows 7 is hidden?

• Running Powershell script with ESXCLI commands via a scheduled task in Windows 2012 does not work.

  I'm trying to run a powershell script of a scheduled task in Windows 2012. The script calls the commands ESXCLI and ends with success (exporting to a CSV file) but the file has no data inside.  If I run the script manually without the scheduled task file has all the I expect to exit.

  I wonder if there is a framework with Powershell or a PSSnapin I need to add to the script for it to run via a scheduled task.  Has anyone done this before with the ESXCLI commands?

  panhvr - you may to something.  The process account that I use to run this script has only read-only access in vCenter.  I logged on the server I am running these reports with the process ID and tried to run the script.  He gave me errors indicating permission to perform the operations of esxcli was denied.

  I think we found the culprit!  I'll have this process ID in vCenter rights upward.

  Thank you all!

• Why the scheduled task cannot rename?

  In Windows 7, after that I put a scheduled task, the task name cannot be renamed.

  Does anyone know a trick to rename rather than create a new one?

  Thanks in advance for your suggestions

  Yes, it's fast & simple.

  Export the task in any convenient folder.  [Export is on the right side of the window TS]

  It is saved as an xml file.

  Switch to the folder in Windows Explorer and rename the xml file with any name you want to change the task.

  Import the xml file.  [Import is also on the right side of the window TS]

  You will then see a task with any name you call the xml file.

• I want to schedule tasks intermitant Windows based on the time and date.

  Similar to the function OnTime in Excell...   Driven by my code... no limit time of Task Scheduler options. Or may Iprogramaticaly schedule a task again a time in task schedular as apposed by using its dialog entry forms.  It works too, I wrote a small vba application that could sit there 24/7 active and fire off my task when it is called for, but that looks like a terrible waste of resources

• How to use the scheduled tasks in Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit?

  We bought a new computer with Windows Vista, at our previous computer (Windows XP) planned to tasks in the control panel to stop future elements at the start of the system, how to keep the elements that it slows down my computer to come at the start of the system

  1. use Windows Defender to manage startup programs.

  2. http://netsquirrel.com/msconfig/msconfig_vista.html

  Read the above info.

  3 use this program:

  http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963902.aspx

  This utility, which has a knowledge of auto-starting locations of any startup monitor, shows you what programs configured to run at system startup or login and that the entries in the order of processing windows. These programs include those in your startup folder, Run, RunOnce, and other registry keys. You can configureAutoruns to show other locations, including Explorer shell, toolbar extensions, helper objects to the browser, Winlogon notifications, auto and many start-up services even more. Autoruns goes way beyond the MSConfig utility bundled with Windows Me and XP.

  4. go into each program > tools > Options > see if you can disable the startup when Windows starts.

  See you soon.

  Hi Bill,

  1. what exactly happens when you run the backup program?

  If a scheduled task does not run when you expect it, right-click the task, and then click Properties. On the Task tab, make sure that the enabled check box is selected. On the tab schedule, check that planning is set correctly.

• Why Media Center now create two scheduled tasks mcupdate AND mcupdate_scheduled?

  I've noticed since starting up Windows Media Center for the first time in a long time on a clean install of Windows 7, it today creates an additional task in the scheduler called mcupdate AND mcupdate_scheduled.  Mcupdate_scheduled is always set to wake the computer at 03:31 every day.  Now in the past to stop Media Center starting the computer for the night and then leaving him on, I would go into media center automatic update options and turn them off.  These options now is more effect Mcupdate or Mcupdate_scheduled and the only way to prevent the center of marketing media automatically is to disable Mcupdate_scheduled in Task Scheduler.  No idea why this strange configuration is in place?  Why is Media Player so determined his will light up in the night by going to the measure of the creation of additional tasks AND prevent you to extinguish itself in Media Player?  Any ideas on that?

• 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?

  If you select the download updates but let me choose... option, no update will install without your approval. Suppose an update will require a reboot and does not approve the installation of an update until & unless you are ready to restart.

  You can change the AU for the "updates but let me choose whether to download and install them" setting. Once you have done this, you will need to approve the updates are downloaded, the updates are installed and where they are installed.

  I prefer "check for updates but let me choose whether to download and install them" setting.

• Scheduled task runs does not correctly in the Windows XP machine.

  Original title: Troubleshoot the scheduled task.

  I have a scheduled task scheduled to run at 2:30 every night.  The time of execution scheduled next is 02:30 March 2, 2011.  I was not able to know what prevents it from running.  After a diagnosis, I'm sure it's not the exact command, but rather the setting in the scheduled task.  However, this is just in case: cmd /c start 'scan MalwareBytes' / low/b "C:\Program Malwarebytes ' Anti - Malware\mbam.exe" / scan-complete - log - cancel

  I have read many web pages on the resolution of the scheduled tasks, but the principal that I follow is http://support.microsoft.com/kb/308558.  Here is what I checked:

  • The scheduled task folder shows a 27 February 2011 than last time to run
  • Last log written by the application is February 27, 2011, confirming the last Run Time
  • Status column is empty
  • The application runs if I right click on the scheduled task and select run
  • I used 'cmd' and 'start' in a similar way to successfully launch a low priority job in different scheduled task launching a different application of scanning
  • Application logs for all three of my tasks planned for antimalware scans different show that there is a lot of room between the task durations
  • If I right click on the task failed on demand, choose run and wait for the end, success is indicated by a new log file written by the application and a "Last Run Time" update in the scheduled task folder
  • c:/Windows/SchedLgU.txt confirmed that the scheduled task that failed did not run since February 27, 2011, while other scheduled tasks has been run.  After a right click and running, c:/WINDOWS/SchedLgU.Txt shows a successful run.

  All my regular scans are set to run if the computer is idle, and I'm sure that didn't prevent this idling at this hour there.  The scheduled task failed is set to run under an administrator account even if this user is not signed.  He was placed this way well before the last run time of the February 27, 2011, and other tasks are also implemented this way (with success).  Is there anything else I can try?

  I think I found the problem.  I unchecked the option somehow to wake up in order to perform the scheduled task.  Thank you all for your answers.

• No scheduled task running in Windows 7

  I am running 32-bit Windows 7 Home Premium.

  There are about 5 days all tasks stop running scheduled. Task Scheduler says:

  Summary: 0, total 0-0 running succeeded, 0 stopped, 0 failed

  The Scheduler and its dependencies are all running and configured to start automatically. I see nothing in the event logs to explain this, even if maybe I'm looking in the wrong place.

  I have run the System File Checker and found no defects.

  Can someone advise.

  Thank you. Kind regards... Bernard

  Thanks for your suggestion of Marilyn...

  It took a while to work, but the answer has proved to be much simpler than I expected.

  As you will see, in my original, Scheduler task message indicates:

  Summary: 0, total 0-0 running succeeded, 0 stopped, 0 failed

  When I check the report of the task status on the Task Scheduler (local) page.

  However, what I didn't realize is that this summary is produced only if the Task Scheduler is set to activate all tasks history. My copy has been set to disable all tasks history and since I changed this setting, execution details and the summary tasks are appearing as I expected.

  Thanks again for your help.

  Kind regards... Bernard

  When I schedule it, it just does not take into account the part of connection and opens the Excel process...

  What I am doing wrong?

• Why we do not receive notification of scheduled task?

  Hi guys,.

  We have a scheduled task that is configured to create a snapshot of a VM to each month. If the shots were created. However, we also have a notification for this (see attachment), but we do not receive any notification once the task is completed? No idea how to get this working?

  Thanks in advance!

  Configure you the SMTP server, etc.? Task managed successfully, then it will be something with the sending of the e-mail.

  In vCenter, go to "Administration"-> "vCenter Server Settings" and choose "Mail".

  You must configure an SMTP server account and sender account here.

  If set correctly, it should work, unless you are not allowed to use the SMTP server or something
