Schedule tool help
Posted by Gonzo on January 24th, 2007


I need to schedule something to run every 30 mins, I don't think the windows
scheduler can do this unless you create multiple schedules, do you know any
free software that can do this? All I want to do is run a batch file that
does an xcopy.

If you create the task in windows scheduler and goto advanced properties
there are options to run the task every X minutes. I would look into that.

Also have a look at :

Yeah, the windows task scheduler can do it, we have tasks running every 10
minutes. Listen to smokey, check the advanced properties.

My first thought is that there is more to why you want to run a batch file
that does an xcopy every thirty minutes. Perhaps there are better ways to
realize that goal.
