Hello to all,

I am wondering if the VCL Scheduling agent is working on Vista.
I think it does not work.

Do you plan to implement VCL Scheduling on Vista ?

Thank you for your answers !

Kind regards.

Hello,

Actually, even current version work on Windows Vista. With the only exception it doesn't see\use tasks and folders created with new Vista's Task Scheduler 2. We're finishing version 2.0 now and it will fully supports Windows Vista Task Scheduler 2 as well.

Hi Igor Siticov,

Do you mean that Win Vista uses folders as "scheduling scheme" instead of *.job files in Win XP? And do you mean that M$ still support the application using old task scheduler for the reason of compatible?

Hi,

Vista's Task Scheduler 2 and XP's Task Scheduler are just 2 different "system objects" independent from each other. They just like different system DLLs. Vista still supports XP's Task Scheduler but in single way. Vista can see and deal with XP tasks but Task Scheduler 1 (XP) can't see and manage Vista's tasks created with its native (version 2) scheduler service.
