I need to execute a batch file every day. I tried this batch file in the cmd prompt and it works fine. Now through AT command I have put this batchfile in the scheduler(My scheduler is ON). After the time, from the list it is vanished but the batch file does not get executed.
And neither it gives any error not it log into the event viewer. please help me in this matter. thanks in advance
 
Is your scheduler started with an account that has the same rights as you when you are logged in and able to run the file? Can you schedule and run a very basic bat file like:

echo Hello World
pause

The most common problem though is the scheduler not having the proper authority to run a command. Good luck.
 
Try putting pause statements in the batch file to see where it is failing. If you never get to the 1st pause, then scheduler isn't set up with the right permissions to run the batch.
 
Check if the service name is called "Scheduler" or "Task Scheduler".

If the service name is "Scheduler" then you problably got a privilege problem or an environmental problem (ex. you perform network operations) to run the batch program, try to change the account user that starts the service (the system account has not a network environment) try a domain privileged account, for example.

If the service name is "Task Sheduler" you probably got in "My Computer" an icon named "Task Scheduler", that is, double click this and you'll be able to add new tasks setting up the account, period, etc.. (pretty good).

Wish it helps you!
