Remarks

When battery saver is on, Windows Task Scheduler tasks are triggered only if the task is:

  • Not set to Start the task only if the computer is idle... (task doesn't use IdleSettings)
  • Not set to run during automatic maintenance (task doesn't use MaintenanceSettings)
  • Is set to Run only when user is logged on (task LogonType is TASK_LOGON_INTERACTIVE_TOKEN or TASK_LOGON_GROUP)
All other triggers are delayed until battery saver is off. For more information about accessing battery saver status in your application, see SYSTEM_POWER_STATUS. For general information about battery saver, see battery saver (in the hardware component guidelines).
