| Re: Task Scheduler repeat task duration bug? I don't know if this is needed anymore, but heres a workaround :
Suppose I have to run a task every 15 minutes from 8am to 8pm
i'll set my clock to show time in [B]24-HRS HH:mm[/B] format from regional settings in control panel.
Then I'll make a bat file that checks whether current time is between 8:00 and 20:00 hrs and put my task command there as follows
@echo off
FOR /F "tokens=*" %%R IN ('time /T') DO SET time=%%R
set HR=%time:~0,2%
if %HR% geq [B][U]8[/U][/B] if %HR% leq [B][U]19[/U][/B] goto main
goto exit
:main
rem put your desired command(s) here
rem for eg to run calculator, :
calc.exe
:exit
rem program ends here
see that 8 and 19 are bold and undrlined because i want task to run betweek 8 hrs and 20 hrs, so you can change those values accordingly.
I understand that OP may not be interested at all now, given it was asked a year ago but i just googled and found so many other posts about the same topic so I guess this might help someone. |
