Can't use Windows task to sschedule backups

Post by Fokke Nauta »

Hi all,
I used to run version 7, with multiple jobs. The jobs were not scheduled individually. In the Windows Task Scheduler there was a task, which started C:\(path)\bSchedstarter.exe /hide /AJ-priority 2. This worked well, each job was started after the previous one was finished.
I upgraded to version 9. I created the same task, but now to the Backup4all 9 folder. But this does not seem to work. Backup4all starts but keeps hanging and there are no backups. I need to use the Task Manager to kill Backup4all.
How can I create a tast in the Task Scheduler which will start all the backup jobs? One after another.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi,

Please create the task from Backup4all to avoid any mistakes.
There needs to be a space between "AJ" and "-priority 2"

Hi,

Thanks.
I managed to find out as to how to achieve this from within Backup4all.
I assume it will work.

Same problem here!

Hello,

I have the latest version installed, it allows me to do the scheduled task, but it doesn't work.

What about the new version? I need help, thank you.
