task scheduler

[Hershmab]

Windows XP Home, SP2:
I want to schedule a task to run at LOGON on three days of the week only.
The scheduler does not allow both sets of conditions. Is there ant way round
this?

 

[mikeyhsd]

create 3 separate schedules.

create 3 separate schedules.

But no schedule can contain both LOGON and DAY! So even if I only wanted the
task to run one day a week, I would still have to specify a time.

 

[mikeyhsd]

well put in a time.

mikeyhsd's suggestions may possible work in Vista, but they do not apply in XP.

I still would like to know if anyone can think of a way - in XP - of
imposing TWO sets of conditions on the Task Scheduler:
1: An event (logon or system start)
2: a time (every Monday or Tuesday)

Is it possible to shut-down an application.
I can start my RSS reader, it updates, and of course stays open.
Is it possible to schedule a task to close this application, at a given time.
i.e. schedule task to start 05:30 daily
schedule another task at 06:00 daily to close the application.?
