Link above not to hot! To set up a task that runs every 15 minutes, here are the steps: Start->Control Panel->Scheduled Tasks->Add Scheduled Task. Click Next. Select any program (we’ll be replacing this so it doesn’t matter) and hit Next. Name the task “MT Periodic Tasks”. Select Perform This Task Daily and hit Next. Hit Next (accept the default start time/date). If prompted, enter your username and password (twice for the password) and hit Next. Check “Open advanced properties for this task” and hit Finish. The advanced properties will open. Change the Run: box to read “perl run-periodic-tasks”. Change the Start In: box to the name of the directory where your run-periodic-tasks script is (for example C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\mt\tools). Select the Schedule tab and click Advanced. Pick today’s date as the start date, and check Repeat Task. Set the Every boxes to whatever your repeat rate should be (for instance 15 and minutes). Check the “Duration” button, and set it to 23 hours and 59 minutes and click OK. This will run the task every day and repeat it every 15 minutes for 24 hours. At the end of the 24 hours it will be a new day, and the task will start over — repeating every 15 minutes for another 24 hours. This part of the interface is especially unintuitive; somebody should make a new interface for Task Scheduler that actually makes sense to normal people. :-P Change the start time to 15 minutes from now and click OK. If you are prompted again for your username and password, put them in and hit OK. Your task will now run every 15 minutes until you disable or delete it.
