Solve : Start program at a thime?

Answer»

I'm not sure if I'm in the right section, but I want to start a program at a specified thime. That's easy, you think, just use sceduled task and the programm will be runned at the specified time. But it does NOT. The programm that I'm tealking about is: "bitcommet". If I set that program location in sceduled task, it don't work. So perhaps someone can help me with a BATCH file, that count down to 12 o'clock (midnight, because then I want to start my download)


anny help would be appriciated


blackberry don't think bitcomet has scheduling . Another client, utorrent, has schedulingQuote

I don't search schudeling in the program itself (because I know that doesn't exist) but I search... well.... actually read my question again....How are you scheduling the bitcommet program? Why is the scheduling failing? Counting down to midnight is not really a solution. If you gave us more info, we may be able to help you get this job scheduled.

I've used windows sceduled task manager. START => control panel => planned tasks (sorry for saying this in this stupid way, but I don't know the correct term...) I don't get anny error, but nothing happens... Every time I added a task, nothing happed. I'd liked to see that it STARTS.... (perhaps with countdown time, witch the choice command to enter how much time...)

P.S. I'm RUNNING winxpThe easiest way to schedule a task, is as you're doing. When the Scheduled Tasks folder opens, click on Add Scheduled Task and follow the prompts. One reason jobs don't run as scheduled is the Run Only If Logged On box is not checked or if it's not, the Set PASSWORD box has not been filled in. I find it easier to check the Run Only If Logged On Box and forget about the password.

It's your choice.

You can also schedule a job using the AT command. The AT command has it's own set of API's and should not be confused with the Windows Task Scheduler.

8-)that worked, thanks for helping, sidewinder!So how do you do it exactly ?? does the command promt have to be open ?
