Windows 7 Task Scheduler doesn't list my custom task(s)

Question

I created a custom task from another application (Peachtree), but it never showed up in the Active Tasks list. So, I created it manually from within the Task Scheduler, but the task still hasn't appeared.

I'm afraid I now have two tasks that do the same thing, but I can't change them in any way. What can I do?

Answer 1

Start > Programs > Accessories > System Tools > Task Scheduler

I had the same problem, and my custom tasks only showed up if I navigated to Task Scheduler via the method above. If I did Start > Right-click on Computer > Manage > Task Scheduler then they would not show up.

I hope this helped.

Answer 2

In the Task Scheduler if the line "Task Scheduler (Local)" is selected, you won't see your custom tasks. Select "Task Scheduler Library" (not the plus sign, the words themselves) and you will see your custom tasks.
