Trigger Task Scheduler by connection and disconnection of a wireless headphone

Hi Paul,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



We understand that you want to trigger a task in Task Scheduler when you connect headphone to your PC.



We would suggest you to try the steps mentioned below and see if that helps:

1. Connect the headphone to the computer. Now, press
   Windows key + X, and select Device Manager.
   
2. Expand Bluetooth, right click on the
   headphone and select Properties.
   
3. Click on Events tab, you will find 2 events.
   
4. Click on the Device started event and click on
   View All Events.
   
5. An Event Manager window will open, click on
   Attach Task To This Event on the lower right hand side.
   
6. This should provide you the options to create a new task. Select the Actions for the program to be run based on the trigger.
   

Let us know how it goes.



Regards,

Task scheduler On Idle task not triggered Windows 7

Windows 10: I've just tested on windows 10 and set the task idle time to be 5 mins, but it
still triggered after 4 mins only, I've manually timed it 3 times and always triggers after 4 mins not 5 mins, any idea why?

Windows 7: Isn't the task triggered because Windows 7 does not admire the 4 minute idle timer as
according to Microsoft Windows 7 checks if the system is idle every 15 minutes? if so then shouldn't it work if the task idle time is set to 20 mins for example?

UPDATE : I just tested it and manually timed it twice on my Windows 7 machine and it always triggers after 15 mins of Idle time even if I am setting the Idle task to 20 mins. Also my
application doesn't start although the task is triggered but instead of my application running a screensaver starts running although I am setting screensaver to off on my machine. Any explanations or advice please?

WMI suggestion: Could you advise with the steps step by step to follow to do you WMI suggestion
please?

 

No restart button in task manager

another easy way to kill tasks, download and install Winaero Tweaker(free) and theres a setting to add a Kill non responding tasks using the desktop right click menu. When you place your cursor on the desktop anywhere and right click the option is at the top of the list, Very handy and you dont have to go through all those steps and well Winaero Tweaker has alot of cool Windows tweaks. Just posting a different suggestion, Im sure your ok with what was suggested here.
