Windows 10: Optimize drive schedule is set but never runs consistently

I practically have the same issue as this post from 8 years ago Yes, EIGHT YEARS AGO.... Let me describe my situation: I have Optimize Drives TRIM as they have been by default set to run weekly, with the setting increase task priority also checked for my SSDs Nevertheless, the optimization never ever runs weekly, I either run them manually or it finally goes off. How does it being set to run on a weekly basis, in which I use my laptop very often as well as leaving it on even when not in use, does it just let weeks go by without doing a damn thing? That's like me setting my alarm tomorr

Optimize drive schedule is set but never runs

I really don't understand these type of bluff suggestions.

This has nothing to do with the original question.

Please suggest something related or not at all.
