Task Scheduler is not triggering

Question

As usual having problems with sheduled tasks.

• The task is running on Windows 11
• it runs with higher privileges. Admin user with password
• it should triggers every minute. The "next run time" is correct but it doesn't trigger. The history is enabled but doesn't giving any message or error
• if triggering it manually it works and writes the log on History
• the operation is a simple cmd tha copies files from one folder to another

what else should I do??

Thanks

Answer 1

Can you send me a print of the schedule (Triggers) with the settings?

Also send the event viwer log following the steps below, please.

To get the Windows Event logs:

In the Windows search bar, start typing: Event Viewer.

Click Event Viewer Application in the search results pane.

In Event Viewer, expand "Windows Logs" (in the left pane).

Right-click Application and click Save All Events As.

In the Save As dialog, ensure that the file type is set to Event Files (*.evt).

Name the log file "Application" and click Save.

Repeat steps 5 through 7 to get the System and Security logs.

Upload these logs to some drive(onedrive, google drive, dropbox or another) and send me a download link so I can review it.

Hi Vinicius and thanks for reply.

The machine is up to date and the time settings are correct.

I've tried to put 5 min and nothing changes.

In the Conditions thing has beeh checked.

Settings, the checked are:

Allow task to be run on demand

Stop the task if ti runs longer than 1 hour

If the task is already running: do not start a new instance

Hi, with _robfra. I'm sorry to hear you're having this problem, and I hope I can assist you to find a satisfactory solution.

Could you do a test and verification?

First, check that the machine is up to date and the date and time settings are correct (Synchronizing correctly.).

After that, put it to run every 5 minutes and see if anything changes.

In the task, what did you select on the Conditions and Settings tabs?
