task scheduler delay

Question

Hello.I have  created  a  task  for  waking up  my laptop  after hibernation.I   have scheduled the start of qbittorrent every day  at 7:40 a.m.Usually  i  put the  computer in  hibernation  mode  before i  go to sleep (about  12 hours).I noticed  that  the start of the task  delayed about  5-6 minutes.And  starts  at 7:45/7:46 a.m.Ι  test the  same  task  but puting my  computer  to  hibernation  for  a  few minutes.And  the  task starts  exactly  the time i  had  scheduled.For  example  9:10 a.m?So starts 9:10  a.m!!!So  why  puting  my computer  for  many hours  to  hibernation the  task delayed?Due  to  the long period of hibernation?

Answer 1

Hello,

It's possible that the delay in starting the task after a long period of hibernation is due to the time it takes for the computer to fully wake up and become operational again. When a computer is in hibernation mode for an extended period, it may take longer to fully wake up and be ready to execute tasks. This delay could be causing the task to start later than the scheduled time. You may want to consider adjusting the scheduled start time of the task to account for this delay.
