Just recently my scheduled backups on V6 are not running. I have tried to correct the current backups but receive an error. I've deleted all of my scheduled jobs and tried to create new one but I am given the same error. I can manually run a backup, but no scheduled jobs run.

The error message is "Could not create scheduled task. The task image is corrupt of has been tampered with"

Hi,

Can you manually create a scheduled task in Control Panel->Administrative Tools->Task Scheduler?

Hi,

1. Is there any user logged on at the scheduled time?
2. Do you have the same problem if you schedule the backup to run while you are logged on?

I am running my tasks mostly when I am logged in. I am the only users on my system. So No other users could be logged in.
On V5 The tasks That should have been running at moment that my system was not running or when I was not logged in were always suspended until I was logged in again.
I find that the tasks that are sheduled with the trick I earlier described did run once and were not rescheduled for the next run although they should

Hi,

In Backup Properties->Scheduler, please edit the task and make sure you selected the "Run whether the user is logged on or not" option.

I just did as you asked and all tasks were in scheduled tasks. The first had to run at 25-9 so I created a new task that should run at 9:20 today. I had by accident the New Backup task run on the other option and all tasks disappeared from the scheduled list. than I changed it for that method too and it worked.
Is that an error or create with a purpose?

I had by accident forgotten the ask option for the New Backup Task. The result was that after the New Backup task had run all other scheduled tasks had disappeared from the scheduler.
Resetting all the tasks again and running the New Backup with the requested option had the desired effect.
Is this an error or has this a purpose
