    Windows Task Running multiple times before the schedule


    Hi All

    i have scheduled a python script to send mail based on a certain condition. I scheduled the script in Windows task Scheduler to run every 1 hour each day.

    But the Script is running randomly every 10 minute or every 5 minutes.

    Please suggest what can be done to correct the schedule.

    Regards

    :)

    Unable to run Task Scheduler

    Hello Varun,

    Let's determine the cause of the issue. To get started, I'd like to get the following information:

    • Is this your first time to encounter this issue? If so, did you make any changes to your computer's configuration prior to this?
    • Are you getting any error messages?
    • Can you also please confirm the current build of your Windows 10?

      (Type winver into the Cortana search box, then hit
      Enter      .)

    Meanwhile, I suggest that you try starting the Task Scheduler through command line. To do so, please follow these steps:

    • Open Command Prompt (Admin).
    • Type this net start task scheduler and hit Enter.

    We're looking forward to your response.

    Hi Kern

    Tried all the steps you suggested but time is still not synchronizing with internet time via the normal GUI settings and running SynchronizeTime from Windows Task Scheduler returns code 2147943479.

    What next?

    Thanks,
