Task Not Running at Startup
Posted: 19 Jun 2022, 15:37
Hello,
I run CR as a service (not application). I have a backup task defined that is scheduled to run on startup. It will run automatically if I, from a powered on stage, reboot my PC. But when I start the PC from a cold shutdown state, the scheduled task does NOT run. After restart, the CR icon shows in the system tray. I am running CR 1.0.0 under Windows 11.
As I am new to the forum, may I just say to all: I recently switched to CR as it offers all the characteristics I wanted in a backup utility, namely
• A simple interface
• Stores data in non-proprietary, uncompressed, unencrypted format in its original folder tree structure to allow restoral with any Windows File
Manager.
• Allows control over the use of volume shadow copy and mirroring processes (e.g., they can be turned off)
• Backup tasks defined and stored with user ability to disable them or manually specify it to run as a "full" backup
• Can reliably perform automated backups at startup (we are working on this with this question)
Mr. Luis Cobian, you are a very talented developer. And I learned much about backup philosophy from your user manual.
