Hello
Have created 2 tasks in the task schedular.
1 is an exe and 1 is a DOS bat file.
Both are indicated as running per trigger in task schedular however no window displays. Also for the exe no icon appears in the system tray.
Had been running this under XP and both window and icon displayed.
Any help with problem or what am missing would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance
Mike

Hi,

I have a similar problem, using SBS 2008.
I am trying to run both .bat and .vbs files and they fail when run from Task Scheduler

If I run them from the Start> Run or click on them, they work fine.

I have a suspicion that it may be due to the fact I am running 64 bit OS and the files are 32 bit files.

I would be interested to know whether you are running 64bit OS?

Regards
Paul
