Windows 10: "Task Scheduler" crashes without "Time Broker" service running despite it not being listed...

"Task Scheduler" crashes without "Time Broker" service running despite it not being listed in dependencies.

On top of this, Time Broker service may be set to "Manual (Trigger)" but running "Task Scheduler" doesn't trigger it to run at all.


To the Microsoft Windows 10 Team, when you are adding a bunch of useless bloating services, can you make sure they are at least listed as dependencies of the old services so the old services that didn't rely on don't break, please?

Window's Task Scheduler Not Running

Hi,

To assist you better, kindly provide us more details by answering the following questions:

Meanwhile, we suggest that you ensure that the Task Scheduler is running. You can verify if the service is running by following these steps:

• Press Windows key + R on your keyboard.
• Type services.msc and hit Enter.
• Under Services (Local), make sure that the Task Scheduler service's status is
  Started or Enabled.

Should you need further assistance, feel free to get back to us.

 

Task Scheduler service will not start.

Thank you for updating us. If Task Scheduler will not start, we suggest that you restart it. The service might be disabled that's why the task will not run. Follow the steps below to troubleshoot Task Scheduler.

• Click Start menu.
• Type Services in the Start Search box.
• Right-Click Services, and select Run as Administrator.
• If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type your password or click
  Continue.
• Right-click the Task Scheduler Service and select Restart.

And have you tried running the System File Checker scan as an Administrator. For more information check this
article. You can also perform DISM after performing SFC.

Let us know if you need further assistance.

 

Task Scheduler service will not start.

ok, first, Restart is grayed out when i try to right click, only start is available. every time i select that i get the same "The Task Scheduler Service on Local Computer started and then stopped. Some
services stop automatically if not in use by other services or programs" message.

already tried SFC before asking, did not work. tried DISM, and that solved nothing.
