Task Scheduler

Hi,

I did a task scheduler for my batch file. And I trigger it everytime I log on to my computer. So I shut down my computer and log on again. However, the scheduler doesn't seems to invoke the trigger. Even though I am already log on. And when I went back to check what happen the status states "Ready" instead of "running". Anybody knows why? I really need to know the answer urgently. Thank you.

Hi cassie90

you are aware this is the Splunk homepage?

anyways, just add your batch .bat to the startup program group and it will run anytime you login, no need to setup a scheduled task. And if you want it to run in the background 😉 then make it a WSH script, this will not launch a window.
