Windows 10: Invoke sceduled task from batch?

Is there any way to invoke a scheduled task from a script? I know the tasks can be manually invoked from the Task Scheduler's GUI so maybe there's a way to do it programmatically. Yes?

:)

 

Task scheduler simply refuses to run a batch script

Here are a few comments for starters:

• Please upload StartupSet.lnk.
• Where does it reside?
• Instead of invoking
  
  "C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe" /c start StartupSet.lnk
  
  and specifying the optional Startup folder
  
  C:\Users\Tinker Alpha\Documents\Planes\Wallpaper\Background Files\
  
  keep it simple by invoking
  
  StartupSet.bat
  
  directly. Since it contains fully qualfied paths, you do not need to worry about the startup folder.
• To debug the issue, invoke this batch file with the Task Scheduler:
  
  @Echo off
  
  if not exist c:\Log md c:\Log
  
  echo The task ran on %date% at %time% >> c:\Log\Test.txt
  
  Test it by right-clicking the scheduled task, then examine c:\Log\Test.txt

Remember that the Task Scheduler panel does not auto-refresh itself. To see the current status of a task, you must press F5.

You could code your actual batch file more elegantly like so:

Code:

if %HH% LSS 9  echo Less than 9 & goto :eofif %HH% GEQ 9  echo 9 or more   & goto :eofif %HH% GEQ 11 echo 11 or more  & goto :eof

More information required, i.e.

• The task you're trying to run, e.g. the batch file that you invoke.
• The contents of the .xml file you get when you export the task.
