This log file for Scheduled Tasks is stored in the Windows folder, where it is used to record the activity of scheduled tasks. You can use the log file to determine why a task might have stopped, or to check on the status of a task.

Hi,

I have set up the task scheduler to start various programs (like Ad-aware,
spybot, synback, etc) to run at various schedules. The task schedule service
is Automatic as are its dependencies. However, the tasks do not run and every
time i start my computer there is a message stating that the tasks could not
be run at the scheduled time. Can you help figure out the problem?


Regards
