Scheduler fails while trying to wake Windows from sleep/hibernation.
Hi there,
I am running a Windows 7 64-bit setup, and I'm trying to get a timer to wake Windows from sleep or hibernation.
I've got it to work flawlessly on my desktop, however on my laptop, a Dell D630, I can't seem to get it to work. I've created a task triggering on a specific time and running the operation '/c "exit"', which should just start a command prompt and close it again. I've set it to "run with highest privileges" and "wake the computer to run this task". However, it just doesn't boot as scheduled.
The history of the scheduler says nothing at the moment that the trigger is set to go off, but a minut later (probably when I manually boot) I get a "Task scheduler "{....}" instance of the task "\Wakeup" due to a time trigger condition."
What can I do to fix this?
Thank you.
