A couple of days ago I turned on “Notify me of missed tasks” in task scheduler. Now I get the “Some tasks did not execute…” message (att) every time I reboot, or come out of standby. There is no “list of missed tasks” and the last log entry is:
“Some tasks may not have executed at their scheduled times between 8/06/2003 1:55:01 PM and 11/06/2003 7:33:46 AM, either because the Task Scheduler Service was not running, or because the computer was hibernating.”
The problem is that I have turned off the “Notify…” option, and removed all tasks, for every user, from task scheduler. The message remains, and the log is updated regardless. How do I return to the state where task scheduler no longer tells me it did not execute some (non-existent) tasks?
I have tried various combos of adding tasks, letting them run, turning “Notify…” on/off, etc. All to no avail. MSKB and Google both fail to shed any light on this (that I can see). It does not affect use of the PC, but is getting a tad annoying.
