Running one task after ONE FINISHES in windows task scheduler...
I have used windows task schedule to set up small tasks such as opening a website or displaying a jpg. But what I really need to do is this :
Set up the task scheduler so that once a certain task is FINISHED, the next task automatically runs.
I have a short video clip of a fire (called movie) that will run with VLC - once that is complete, I want to run a powerpoint presentation immediately after the movie. Right now I have been trying with the custom filers, but can't seem to get it to work. Here is some of the code I was trying, but doesn't seem to work :
So to recap :
1) movie first (fireplace clip)
2) power point second (called after fire)
<QueryList>
<Query Id="0" Path="Microsoft-Windows-TaskScheduler/Operational">
<Select Path="Microsoft-Windows-TaskScheduler/Operational">*[EventData
[@Name='TaskSuccessEvent'][Data[@Name='after fire']='\movie']]</Select>
</Query>
</QueryList>
Any ideas? also, I have swapped the "After fire" and "movie" around and it still does not work. I wondered if since VLC doesn't shut down automatically if that is hindering it from running powerpoint.
