Windows 10 Task Scheduler tasks don't even try to run


I am trying to get a task in windows scheduler to run every 10 mins.

In the following image there are two blue lines, this is only one task but I have screenshot them at different times after refreshing the page.

Task Scheduler issue

As you can see in the image Task Scheduler, on the bottom blue line under last run time it says 3:37pm and next run time is 5:02pm. then on the top blue line I have a screenshot the same task after 5:02pm, it hasn't updated the last run time but it has pushed the next run time forward 10 mins.

If I right mouse click on the task and manually run it, it works. Its just the timer functionality of task scheduler that isn't working, I'm guessing i have misconfigured it somehow.

These are the options I have set, everything else is on it's default value.

Trigger

Conditions

Settings

What do I need to change to make this actually run every 10 mins?

Evidence of me searching before posting.


Solution

  • I found that when I change the 'interval' from 'indefinitely' to '1 day' it works.
