The main program window consists of two tabs: Current User and All Users.
The Current User tab contains the tasks that are only used when Advanced Task
Scheduler is running and the user is logged on. This tab enables users to create their
own individual tasks. If you are the system administrator, use this tab to create and
manage your own personal tasks or tasks that do not require OS privileges. If you are
not the administrator or are using Windows 9x/ME, you can use this tab only.
The All Users tab contains the tasks that are always active, regardless of the user that is
currently logged on and even when no users are logged on at all. To schedule tasks for
all users, you need to install the Advanced Task Scheduler Service. It can be installed
by pressing the Install Service button on the Service
tab of the Preferences window.
Only system administrators can create and modify tasks for all users. Use this tab for
tasks that require OS privileges or in cases when you want these tasks to be active
regardless of the users currently working in the system.
Each tab contains the list of groups and the list of scheduled tasks from the selected
group, which can be viewed as one of the following: Large Icons, Small Icons, List and
Details. When the Details view mode is selected, each item appears in its own line with
advanced information spread out by the columns. The advanced information includes
the following six columns:
Name | Task name. |
Task type | Task type (launch application, show reminder, etc.) |
Schedule type | Detailed description of schedule type. |
Schedule period | Period of time, when the task is allowed to be scheduled. |
Last start time | Date and time when the task was last run. |
Last start status | Status of the last task was start. |
Next start time | Date and time when the task will be run next time. |
This window enables you to print, export and import task lists, create new groups and
tasks, as well as to modify, copy, duplicate, delete and run existing tasks.
