    Task Scheduler to restart iTunes in FOREGROUND


    Hi ten people!

    I have found that my iTunes has a feature that seems to only backup my iPhone if I restart iTunes, so I have tried to create a task in Task Scheduler that would start iTunes. I was able to do that but the iTunes only runs in the background as I can see it running in task manager. Is there a switch to force it to run in the foreground? I would like to monitor the progress if possible. Also I am unable to run another instance in the foreground by clicking on the iTunes icon as it says it is already running.

    I am sure it is something simple but I could not find any hits when searching for a solution.

    Thanks,


    :)

    Task Scheduler service will not start.

    Thank you for updating us. If Task Scheduler will not start, we suggest that you restart it. The service might be disabled that's why the task will not run. Follow the steps below to troubleshoot Task Scheduler.

    • Click Start menu.
    • Type Services in the Start Search box.
    • Right-Click Services, and select Run as Administrator.
    • If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type your password or click
      Continue.
    • Right-click the Task Scheduler Service and select Restart.
    And have you tried running the System File Checker scan as an Administrator. For more information check this
    article. You can also perform DISM after performing SFC.

    Let us know if you need further assistance.
