    Windows Task Scheduler with netsh in batch won't work


    I have a PC that is on my network but connected to the internet through a wifi connection that periodically disconnects itself (from the router end). Using Windows 10 Pro x64 1909

    The PC is basically a "public" terminal I use in my home, but only want it to connect through internet through the Xfinity wifi hotspot.

    If I use:

    Code:
    From a command line or in a .bat file it works fine.

    But as soon as I set it as a task in Windows Task Scheduler to run the batch file (basically just that command above), it says it ran successfully, but it doesn't connect.

    I set it to connect once every hour using the "Advanced" settings of:

    repeat task every "1 hour" ... repeat "indefinitely"

    I have run it with highest privileges too, even though I shouldn't have to, and it still won't work.

    Any tips? Thanks!

    Well, after recreating the task a couple times and a reboot, it works now... /shrug/

    :)

    Task Scheduler Batch file

    Hi all,

    Looking for some help.Im creating a batch file to run for different users to add a scheduled task. HOWEVER - the whole thing works great and has done for some time.But after i run the batch file on each machine (different users) i have to go into the security options and change the user the task runs in to the unique user of that machine. Is there a way to use the batch file to pull the account name of the machine (or computer name) and use that as the user the task runs in?


    Thanks =)

    Windows Task Scheduler with netsh in batch won't work

    batch file on task scheduler in Windows 2012 server R2 don't seem to work

    I have a batch file if run manually, able to run successful but not on task scheduler. It will show completed successful but nothing happen.

    I have done the following steps but still same result.

    - select run whether users is logon or not

    - run with highest privileges

    - under Trigger tab, added the following parameters

    • Program/script = C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe
    • Add arguments = /c C:\zVASSS\Sync\start.bat
    • Start in = C:\zVASSS\Sync

    Any solution?
