Hi

I get a very strange behaviour from schtasks.

I used to type the following line for launching myfile.exe ones every
minute (actually this was done from c# code)
schtasks /create /sc minute /tn stdog /tr C:\mydir\myfile.exe

This has been working fine for a while, but now I get an access denied
message. Even if I supply this from command line (cmd.exe).

If I change the taskname to something else though, it works fine. For
example:
schtasks /create /sc minute /tn stdog2 /tr C:\mydir\myfile.exe

This sets up a task by the name stdog2, that launches myfile.exe ones
every minute

What is happening here. It seems like the taskname stdog has been
consumed and is no longer a valid taskname somehow!

Anyone got a clue? Any input would be appreciated.

Unfourtunately this didn't help me much.

I hope someone will be a bit more constructive. But as I said ANY
input is appreciated. So thanks :-)

I generally don't use filters, but I have made an exception for Kevin
John Panzke.

Just to help you interpret the post :-)

Unfortunately I don't know anything abut the problem you asked about.
