Posting this because a search for "retry" in Task Scheduler got no
hits.
Is there an option to "retry" a scheduled task if it does NOT occur?
Example, retry a scheduled ntbackup.
Hi "MageMaster",
You can manually RUN the task without waiting for the scheduled time.
Start> (all)Programs> Accessories> System Tools> Scheduled Tasks
(or Control Panel> Scheduled Tasks)
On the folder menu bar, click View, click Details
(Note that there is a "Help" item on the menu bar too.
Right-click the icon for your task, click RUN
If it does not run,
right-click the icon for your task, click Properties
[Checkmark] Run only if logged on
[Checkmark] Enabled (scheduled task runs at specified time)
Click OK
Right-click task again and click RUN
If it does not run,
right-click Properties again, and,
On the Settings tab, insure there are no settings that would hinder it.
Note, Scheduler cannot wake a computer, if completely powered off.
Other things to check in Scheduled Tasks folder:
On menu bar, click Advanced, click View Hidden Tasks
On menu bar, click Advanced, click View Log
HTH. (Hope This Helps.
