Win7 anomalies__ Task Scheduler

Recently, as soon as I open the Task Scheduler, "" error message: the specified account name is not valid "appears." The same message is displayed for each task. When I "ESC" for each task (the only way to remove the error messages), I find myself where I should go in the first place, and where I see the CorruptionDetector and DecompressionFailureDetector of the tasks have yet again; Neither appears in the active tasks, strangely, so I can't make corrective changes.

The RACTask also disappeared entirely from work, and I don't know how to add it to check the reliability of the laptop. I have run the System Maintenance and no problems are detected. everything seems to work properly.

I simply ignored Task Scheduler in total, you know, the ostrich-head-in-the-sand routine and just go about my business of usual VAIO laptop that I use only for Internet. I thought I would mention it to you, dear friends... see what you think.

Oh, and I downloaded all updates for VAIO Care today only to find that the program is now completely corrupted, useless.

Very strange, huh? Or is my laptop under remote control of crackers?

    It can't be renamed directly, but if you export the task at any place, then re-import, it can be renamed during the import process.

    original title: Task Scheduler

    Implemented few Win7/64 tasks, what is the difference below means Admin user,.

    Run only when the user is logged
    Run whether user is logged on or not, don't store password

    Well, I think.  I can help you understand the legs a little more, but I think you're asking for the location of the exe files for specific things you want to do with the Task Scheduler.  I may not know what you are trying to implement and "Diagnosis, Maintenance" is so general that I can't guess.

    General - we have talked about this in the first two messages-answers

    Triggers, - the most simple relaxation is a timed clickon so a new trigger, set it on a calendar in the dropdown list & the rest is obvious.

    Actions - the operating system more simple action to start a program, that's what you would use for the defragmentation example you given above.  Click Start new & select a program from the drop-down list.

    Conditions - This is all self-explanatory I think.

    Settings - This is all self-explanatory I think.  Allowing to run on demand, for example, allows you to start the task by clicking the Runbutton on the right side of the window of TS - it is useful to test the task when you have set up.

  • 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.

    Windows 7 SP1 Services.

    Services of Windows 7.

    When finished, restart the PC.

  • 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.

SSIS package relationship parent/child and must pass the variable that has a value of the location of the configuration file.

  • 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,

    Laura

    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
