I have clicked on everything in the task scheduler and none of us can see
"just right click on the schedule for the reg repair and hit properties :-)"
Where is that?

This extra step doesn't make it only for advanced users, as you wrote before.
peterr:
This began as a program like the one that had three tabs(turned out to be for xp) then progressed to the task scheduler.
The idea was to supplant ERUNT which was hard to use by average users. Most average users cannot use the TS.
I did learn the TS if you read my post to him as I set a schedule for the desktop, although could not for the laptop. Getting the scheduler involved results in 'just one more thing to fix'.
Typical of emails lacking inntonation etc this is out of proportion. I was going to write him with more smiley faces so it woud not cause hard feelings. I am not a rude or inconsiderate person but I have some people who are not happy and they blame me as I led them to this program.
All I am saying is that this was supposed to be easier than it turned out to be. I was reading another thread where there are still some issues to fix. I thought this was done in Beta and the release was
basically as planned.
I offer you, Shane and all who red this an olive branch.

neroilo:
All programs have always something to fix, even after beta releases. Most important thing in these cases is the support provided by the program's developer(s).
But yours is a different thing, because you're complaining about a Microsoft feature without to explain us what is the exact problem that you've received in your laptop.
peterr:
I am trying to keep peace first of all.
The issue never was the TS.
I thought we would have a program that was like the xp one Shane created but needed to fix for Win 7 -that is when the TS came into the picture.
I did get the desktop to run using the TS but the laptop was being drained of power quickly, using a lot of resources ultimately, unlike the desktop, could not create a back up in a dozen tries.
It reported stopped in the library.

The program was making the old task scheduler in the XP interface only. I fixed it to when not on XP, it creates the correct one. Thats all the change there was to the schedule.

If the task scheduler is draining power then you might have a rule in there that is set to run often and bring the system out of standby to run. Otherwise the only way any program could make a system use more power is if it is using a lot of cpu, memory or video at the time since those need more power to run at full speed. :wink:
If the task scheduler wasn't running the backup and no backups where being made then sounds like something is wrong with the task scheduler.
Where you able to backup on the laptop with the program manually? The new versions of the program are set to fall back to the API backup like erunt if the volume shadow copy service fails.
