    Problem getting a powershell script to run in Task Scheduler


    Hello. I am trying to get a PowerShell script to run once every half hour in the Task Scheduler utility. The platform is Windows Server 2019 Standard Edition. I configured the script to run on a schedule starting at 12:00 AM every day, and repeat every 30 minutes indefinitely. The script is designed to do a check of disk space usage on several remote servers, and email the results as an attached html file. The user account that is associated with the script does have Administrator access on all servers. The script itself is configured to run whether the user account is logged in or not, and al

    Problem Getting a Powershell Script to Run in Task Scheduler

    Hope I'm in the right place!

    I am trying to get a Powershell script to run daily in the task scheduler. It basically purges a folder on one of my drives:

    Get-ChildItem –Path “D:\Dropbox\Quicken\Backup” –Recurse | Where-Object CreationTime –lt (Get-Date).AddDays(-10) | Remove-ItI

    I can run it from a CMD prompt and I set it up in the task scheduler and it seemed to run one time on schedule and then hasn't run since that initial time. I have tried to run it manually from the task scheduler but it gets and error "Task Start Failed."

    I have attached copies of the properties tabs and the main view of the task scheduler with the History showing. Any ideas? I didn't find a tutorial, but I'm sure there is something on the website!

    Cordially,

    Al Guden
