NOTE: NOT ALL the tasks with this AUTHOR label will be ones you created… there very well may be some in there which you didn’t manually create too. That will help set your own manually created tasks apart from ones created by other programs and processes. Any tasks created by you will stand out in that list because they will show an author that consists of your computer name and then your username, for example: GABRIELLE-PC\GABBY (just for example). If you click the “Author” label at the top of that column, it will sort/group the tasks by their author. If that doesn’t help, scroll to the right in that same window and look for the “AUTHOR” column. Focus your attention on the “Triggers” column, you’ll see that most tasks probably mention a time of day in which they occur.
If you open Task Scheduler, and then click on “TASK SCHEDULER LIBRARY” on the left, the main window should show a list of all active tasks.
If you know what time your computer was previously set to reboot, you might be able to find it based on that time. If you’re going to have a scheduled task like this in place, make sure to develop the habit of closing documents and programs when you’re done using them, so the reboot won’t close them for you and cause you to lose unsaved work.ĭo you have multiple computers at a business that need maintenance tasks like this on a regular basis? A Managed Services Program is a great solution to get this responsibility delegated to a trusted professional so you can focus on running your business. Now your computer will automatically restart at the date, time, and frequency you specified. Type /F /R in the Add arguments (optional) box and click Next. Find the file named Shutdown (.exe) and click Open.
Restarting your computer periodically is a good idea, especially if it’s a computer that is left on much of the time.
