BigDaddy Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 I set the following:at 12:59 "C:\Program Files\eMule\emule.exe"But EMULE doesn't start at the specified time. And also theres no log entry in EVENT VIEWER! And yes the TASK SCHEDULER service is enabled and active. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uid0 Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 you wont see it without "/interactive" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cluberti Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 Yes - do not forget the /interactive (or /i, same thing) switch when creating a job with an active window you'd like to see. Otherwise, it won't be able to interact with your desktop session, and of course without a shell and most registry entries available to them, most applications will silently crash .

BigDaddy Posted November 30, 2006 Author Share Posted November 30, 2006 (edited) ofcourse! How could I forget. Its the same catch that LINUXs AT command has with GUI programs.ps. Does Windows AT command has the 'at +5min'? So U don't have to type 15:35 if the clock is now 15:30 Edited November 30, 2006 by BigDaddy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mijzelf Posted November 24, 2007 Share Posted November 24, 2007 You can use a batchfile:PING 1.1.1.1 -n 1 -w 300000 >NULYourApp.exewhere 1.1.1.1 is a not reachable IP address. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaclaz Posted November 24, 2007 Share Posted November 24, 2007 WHICH windows?AT is "deprecated" in XP and later:http://www.ss64.com/nt/at.htmlthe new command is SCHTASKS:http://www.ss64.com/nt/schtasks.htmlhttp://www.robvanderwoude.com/schtasks.htmlYou can easily create a batch to invoke it with the write time by parsing current DATE/TIME, here are a few examples:http://www.robvanderwoude.com/amb_datetime.htmlhttp://www.robvanderwoude.com/datetime.htmlA number of links to Freeware alternatives:http://www.computing.net/windowsxp/wwwboar...rum/161152.htmlnnCRON lite should be the more featured:http://www.nncron.ru/#nncronltThe suggestion by mjzelf is good, but it is considered the "poor man's way" as it will eat quite a bit of resources.You need then a "DELAY" or "WAIT" command to put in the batch that calls the app you want to run or a delaying program, here is an example, called DELAYEXEC:http://www.rjlsoftware.com/software/utility/delayexec/jaclaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
