Task Scheduler won't run

[overkill4]

Hi All,

I'm just getting started using the Task Scheduler but how long does it usually take to start a task?
I asked it to convert the drawings in a folder to eDrawings, and I'd waited 15 minutes and the tast hadn't started to do anything yet, it just said scheduled, but I'd set it to start at the current time.

Does it take time to load the current files, or is it better to select the files individually?

Thanks

60% of the time, it works every time.

I've found that you need to start the task scheduler at a future point in time, even if it's only a couple minutes. I had the same experience as you if I tried to make it start at the current time - the task would never start.

You must have the SWBOengine.exe running before TS will start.

SWBOengine.exe?

Is that just the solidworks application?

That's Task scheduler application.

Ah I See.

I just rebooted my laptop and lo and behold the tast began to run.
