Created by Alex Schipor, Modified on Wed, 1 May, 2024 at 5:00 PM by Alex Schipor

These steps will walk you through how to create a new task on your device in order to set it to restart at given times.



1. Open Task Scheduler ( A Default Windows Application)


2. Once the window has opened, select the actions tab at the top of that screen and select "Create Task"


3. This will open up a task screen which will allow you to enter in the configurations for the new task that you are creating, you will also be able to see that there are different configuration options listed out at the top of that windows in the form of tabs. See image below .



4. General: Under this tab, enter in the name and description of that your task will be doing ( Restarting Device)


5.Triggeres:Under this tab once you select the "New" button, you will be listed options of when you want this action to kick in. So if I set "Monday" at 12:00 and also select the "Weekly" option, then this task will kick in every Monday at that set time once a week unless I set it to do other wise.


6:Actions: Under this tab, you will have to add in the script that will tell the scheduler what the device should do by following the steps set in the script. To find the script, enter in the following file path C:\Users\Alex\Dropbox\PC BASED\Batch\Reboot.


Once this has been added, make sure to click add or save any of the the changes.
