    Task Scheduler Issue, Task Not Triggering At Specified Time


    hey everyone. any reason why a task i create does not run or trigger at the specified time? im running windows 10 20h2 with sleep settings set to never.i have made a test task that runs a batch file one liner: shutdown -h have tried just shutdown as well on a one time trigger. i set it normally 2 hours from my current time. it does not run at all if pc stays plugged in. however, if i leave it unplugged eventually discharges to hibernation due to power plan settings at 5%, when i boot up and log in, it THEN decides to randomlly run. event viewer and task history shows that it does not trig

  2. Task Scheduler: task gets triggered by event but does not start

    I know a thing or two about the Task Scheduer but so far I am unable to wrap my mind around your problem. Here is why:

    • I do not recognise the screen snapshot your posted. What is it?
    • What event is supposed to trigger the scheduled task?
    • What is the scheduled task supposed to run?
    • You write "there is the initial event 108 showing the event getting triggered". How can an event trigger another event?
    • Do time-triggered tasks work reliably?

    Scheduled task triggered at wrong time

    Hi,

    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

    In order to get clarity and to assist you accordingly, we would need some information.

    • What is the version and build of you operating system? In the
      Search box, type
      winver to get this info.

    I would suggest you to delete the previous task and recreate the task Scheduler and check the run time.

    Refer this article Using a Task scheduler

    Please reply back with the result and we'll be happy to assist you.

    Thanks,

    Suman.B

    Task Scheduler Issue, Task Not Triggering At Specified Time

    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?
