    No tasks showing in Task Status


    In Windows 7 64 Ultimate, the Task Status box in Task Scheduler is empty, even if I set it to "Last 7 days" and even though Tasks have run (I can look at individual Tasks and they show "Last Run" time as today.

    I've also been having a problem where an instance of svchost.exe was using 25% of my CPU (Athlon II X4 630) and 170MB RAM. I tracked this down to the Schedule service although I haven't worked out what triggers it to happen yet. I have deleted some unneeded Tasks though, so perhaps that's fixed that problem.

    Have you enabled all tasks history in the Task Scheduler?

    Sorry, but it looks like I've still got a problem with this.

    Yesterday, it showed 7 or so tasks in Task Status but today it was empty when I booted up (no matter what time period I selected). All Tasks History is still enabled and a couple of tasks have since shown up in it.
