Task Scheduler Doesn't Stop RUNNING

Tasks worked fine last week. Now any task that runs stays running
until I terminate it.

Any ideas as to what is going on? It looks like the jobs are
completing as expected, but the Task Scheduler indicated "Running"

Thanks for any tips.

Perhaps your tasks are waiting for some user input? Try modifying
your tasks as follows:

@echo off
echo %date% %time% Start of scheduled task > c:\test.log
c:\tools\YourTask.exe 1>>c:\test.log 2>c:\test.err
echo %date% %time% End of scheduled task >> c:\test.log

Now schedule this batch file to run, then examine the two log files.
