I'm trying to write a simple form in c# that will run a scheduled task one some computers. Whet I have so far is:
private void button_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
try
{
for (int i = 0; i < num_of_computers; i++)
{
string line;
line = (" /run /tn myTask /s " + _ReplacerObj.MyComputers[i] + " /u user s /p password");
proc.WindowStyle = System.Diagnostics.ProcessWindowStyle.Minimized;
proc.FileName = @"C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\schtasks.exe";
proc.Arguments = line;
Process.Start(proc);
}
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
MessageBox.Show(ex.ToString(), "Error Message!");
}
For some reason this doesn't work (IE - the scheduled task didn't start). I tried running from cmd this:
c:\windows\system32\schtasks.exe /run /tn myTask /s myIp /u user /p password
and it worked fine. Any suggestions? THANKS!
using Microsoft.Win32.TaskScheduler;
I suggest using one of the .NET wrappers for the task scheduler.
I have used this one in the past to good effect.
I use the following which works fine, may be of help (plugging in your arguments)
