Most people use the standard Unix "cron" utility for this.

No; standard advice is to use the cron system. See the crontab manpage.

Hi, I am writing an App in .Net that involves some scheduling of tasks. I was wondering if anybody has come accross any components or examples of how to implement a schedule manager like the one in the Task Scheduler for Windows? Basically I'm after something that'll allow me to specify a "recurring" or "once off" schedule with advanced options like "the first monday in the month" etc.

I would like to have my application add administrative tasks to an Administrator's Outlook Task Folder. I know how to get the User group of the CurrentUser and think I can even code how to do the actual additions. A couple of questions: 1) How do I code it so that it only occurs once - the first time the administrator opens my app. I think I need code that checks if the tasks are already there in Outlook and then aborts if they are....

How can I access and manipulate Scheduled Tasks in Windows using Python? I have a Windows XP workstation running Python 2.4.4 using the win32all modules to control the windows services on multiple Windows 2003 servers. It works great. However, I also need to remotely collect the settings for the scheduled tasks (on those same Windows 2003 servers) and then manipulate those task settings.

I'm running 8.2 on Windows. I have a situation where several scheduled tasks were created in Task Center, under an ID of a person who is leaving the organization. This person's ID is to be deleted, but I see no way of reassigning the owner of these tasks. And I can't change permissions on the tasks without logging in as that 'owner' ID. Is renaming the ID and resetting the password a viable option here?

Hello--I'm using Outlook. When on "Tasks", my page is set up with "To do List" at the top. I've sorted 'my view' to contain what is important to me.

Below all those tasks is another row, "Due Date: Sept. 2, 2008" with all my tasks below that. Etc. Etc. My question is---is there a way to change the font or color on "Due...

Hello, I am working on a program that must perform a certain task on numeric data stored in a file. The task is given by user input from a list of possible tasks.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
