BonRouge Posted December 28, 2010 Report Share Posted December 28, 2010 I want to start a small .bat file (or just a short command) at a certain time. It seems 'at' is the command I need.I do something like this:at 12:32 myfile.batThe .bat file works by itself, but not with this 'at' command. A new task is set up in the 'Scheduled Tasks' thing, but when it's supposed to run, under 'Status' it says 'Could not start'. One thing I notice which is different from the other scheduled tasks I have is that the others were 'created' by 'steve' (i.e. me), but these are created by 'SYSTEM'.Any help would be appreciated.
