Task
Scheduler Adding and Deleting Tasts
Task Scheduler a utility that runs
maintenance routines, such as ScanDisk and Disk Defragmenter, according to
a specified schedule. To open the Scheduled Tasks window,
double-click the Task Scheduler icon in the tray of your Taskbar; if
you don't see the icon, select Start, Programs, Accessories, System
Tools, Scheduled Tasks, and then select Advanced, Start Using Scheduled
Tasks.
To add a new routine to the list, click the Add Scheduled Task item, click
Next, and wait as the wizard compiles a list of options. Select an
application, such as Disk Defragmenter, click Next again, and follow along
to set up a schedule for the task. Click Finish, and the new task appears
in the Scheduled Tasks window. Repeat these steps for each task you'd like
to add to the list.
To delete a task from the list, right-click it and select Delete. When
you're finished adding and deleting tasks, close the Scheduled Tasks
window. Then, as long as Windows and the Task Scheduler are running at the
time for which tasks are scheduled, this little helper will run them for
you.
