Recurring Task Help

Recommended Posts

Im trying to schedule a task that will run every 30 minutes.

 

Is that possible?

 

I set the task to Recur every "1" day, and repeat every 30 minutes.

 

I don't understand what the "For" field is for (as most tasks I can imagine scheduling would be variable in the amount of time they consume). So i set this to an arbitrary number.

 

The task will complete at its scheduled time but it will not repeat. Or at least i see no evidence of it doing so. It merely reschedules for the following day, as seen in the task scheduler.

 

Am I doing it wrong, or misunderstanding the functionality of the scheduler?

Well, I answered my own question. Maybe it should be obvious, but the "For" field determines for HOW LONG within the selected interval the task will repeat.

 

I thought it was to set the duration of the task.

 

Thank you,

Adam P
