Batch/Powershell file wont run via Task Scheduler

Hello,
I'm having trouble getting my Powershell file to run from Task Schedule during logoff. In short, I'm trying to upload my NTUSER.DAT (roaming profile) to my profiles folder on the file server. Dynamic VLAN switching does not support roaming profiles thus
I have to use a script to solve this issue.
My powershell script is as follows:
start-sleep -s 15
Set-Content -Path "C:\Temp\log.txt" -Value "Hello World"
$FileServer = 10.10.5.5
$FQDN = "$Env:UserDomain"
$User = Get-WmiObject -Class Win32_NetworkLoginProfile | Sort-Object -Property LastLogon -Descending | Select-Object -Property * -First 1 | Where-Object {$_.LastLogon -match "(\d{14})"} | Foreach-Object { New-Object PSObject -Property @{ Name=$_.Name.TrimStart("$FQDN\") }} | Select -ExpandProperty Name
copy-item -path C:\Users\$User\NTUSER.DAT -destination \\$FileServer\Profiles$\$user.V2\ -force
copy-item -path C:\Users\$User\NTUSER.DAT -destination \\$FileServer\Profiles$\$user.V3\ -force
I have a task schedule to run as Domain Admin when event ID 4647 occurs (logoff). It is set to run with the Highest Privileges checked, also I have enabled to run weather the user is logged in or no. The Domain Admin account also has access to ever file,
both at source and destination. Set-ExecutionPolicy is set to unrestricted. The way I call the powershell script in Task Scheduler is:
Action: Start a program
Program/Script: C:\temp\launch.bat
The launch.bat contains the following:
Powershell.exe -executionpolicy unrestricted -File "CALL C:\temp\powershell.ps1"
The task is triggered each time when the user logs off, I have confirmed this in the logs. But the NTUSER.DAT file fails to copy over to the network, in fact the log.txt file isn't even generated. I have confirmed my code to work, it's just the task scheduler
part calling the code where I think it fails.
Can you guys point me in the right direction here? I know I'm close, but not sure what I'm missing.

Jrv,
Yes in my testing the task schedule is unreliable, I don't have any info on how long the profile is locked, thus I can't copy the profile to the server when the OS still has it locked.
What do you propose I change my vlan configuration to?
Thanks.
What you are trying to do cannot be done. That is why it is not being done. If you set up roaming profiles and redirected folders this would happen automatically. It would also happen very quickly. THat is because Windows posts cahnges
to teh roamed image as they happen. Only changes are copied. Items in teh registry which are only valid during logon (Dynamic Entries) are nver copied so updates that are not needed are not posted. It is these updates thaat can keep the registry
locked for a very long time.
If you scan your network you will likely find hives thaat are loaded with no one logged in. WIndows 7 and later have a utility that forces and unload after a few minutes. It posts the reson for the forced unload to the event log.
As for the VLAN it is likely not configured correctly. THe profile must be on a server that is available on the same net ID as the PC. YOu may also have to allow the switch to suspend if you are using per-user conenctions. Contact the VLAN
vendor and tell them about issues with Roamed profiles. THey will walk you through the setup. THe most common issue is thaat the switch specifies 1Gb and the server is set to 100Mb and the switch is not set to match the speed. THisis a simplpe
configuration error done by a tech who does not have much experience with VLANs. THey tend to think that setting everything to 1Gb or some other maximum will work but it won't. It can also be caused by a files server with a 1Gb card that is a pront
spooler spooling to a 100 or 10Mb older printer. This disrupts the card and the VLAN cannot attach to it until the spooler is dona nd the card can switch. It can also be caused by a bad card or a bad switch.
Then VLAN vendors techs are usually very good at troubleshooting this kind of issue. Remote VLAN logging and diagnostics can also pick out the issue.

How to schedule the Batch file to run from task scheduler

Hello Everyone,
I have a batch file which kills the wscript.exe process, I am doing this manually, I need to schedule this batch file to run from task scheduler whenever the process wscript.exe reaches to specific numbers, i.e if the wscript.exe process count in task
manager reaches to 30, the task schedular should execute this batch file,
Is there a way to do so.
dibu

Hi,
àI need to schedule
this batch file to run from task scheduler whenever the process wscript.exe reaches to specific numbers.
As I know, it will not help you to achieve this target via Scheduled Task. When configure Scheduled Task, there
seems no Trigger option that help you specify this condition (process counts reaches to specific numbers) to trigger the batch file.
You could consider that improve this batch file. Adding the
Check function to the script will be a better option. For script issue, you can post it in the
Official Scripting Guys Forum. I believe we will get a better assistance there.
If any update, please feel free to let me know.
Best regards,

Executing powershell ise(x86) scripts via Task Scheduler

hi
i have powershell script that can only run with powershell ISE(X86)
and i want to add it to Task Scheduler
but my problem is when i try to test the script using "Powershell" or "run" before i add it to the Task Scheduler
using "powershell" i wrote :
C:\Windows\SysWOW64\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell_ise.exe -file "c:\my path\update.ps1"
and it only open the script in powershell ISE(X86) without Executing the script
how can i Execute the script not open it ??

thanks
I didnt try your solution
but i solved the problem
it was two step first instead of using Set-Culture
I use
$nc = New-Object Globalization.CultureInfo 'ar-kw'
then i add Type Font 'Courier New' to powershell font
in regedit.exe
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion\Console\TrueTypeFont
the character may not be readable in the console because they are from left to right and there are spaces between each character
but when i update my ADUC or send them to out-file they become readable
these are the references for solution
change the CultureInfo :

Workflow does not start when PowerShell Script is run from Task Scheduler

I have a PS script that updates an item in a SP2010 list so that a workflow will be started. When I run the PS script manually from the PS window on the server it resides, the script runs flawlessly. If I set a scheduled task on the same server
to run the script with the same credentials as are being used in the PS window, the script runs, updated the info on the list, but DOES NOT start the workflow. As we know, SPD workflows cannot be started by anonymous or system accounts. It is as
if the task scheduler adds a bit of information that makes the SP2010 list think the information was updated by one of these accounts even though the field in the list for the item being updated shows the correct account.
HELP!!!
D

Hi,
The issue might be related to the script or schedule task settings your configured. You’d better check the settings.
For example, which option do you set to run the scheduled task? You may select “Run whether user is logged on or not” instead of “run only when user is logged on” as shown in this article:

SyncToy 2.1 Can't Find NAS Folder When Run From Task Scheduler

I'm using SyncToy 2.1 to keep two WIN7 computers and a Synology DS414j NAS drive in sync. I have several folder pairs configured, some between the two PC's and three between one PC and the NAS drive. I have a task set up for automatic syncing. The problem
is SyncToy can't find the destination folders on the NAS drive if it's run from Task Scheduler. If I run SyncToy manually, everything works fine. I've even tried opening the command prompt and running the exact same program Task Scheduler is running (SyncToyCmd.exe
-R), and it works perfectly. But when Task Scheduler runs the task, it fails to find the NAS folders with the following error message:
SYNC: 08/21/2014 14:12:26:140: *** Failed to execute folder pair Downloads to NAS. Could not locate folder \\DISKSTATION\Downloads\.
I've been looking for days for a solution and have not found anyone with this problem. Any ideas?

Hi Texxxas,
Apparently the problem is not with SyncToy, it is with Task Scheduler. If you have had Task Scheduler work for you in the past, then I don't have an answer for that. I have never been able to get Task Scheduler to work correctly with SyncToy and a NAS drive.
I have found that for some reason it works with USB external HDD's but will not work with a network connected hard drive. The same bug exists in Win8.1 as well. However, I have since found a third party task scheduler that works perfectly with SyncToy and
my NAS drive. It is called System Scheduler by Splinterware. The free version only works when you are logged in but they have a paid version that runs as a service and will execute without being logged in. This has solved my problem.

Executing powershell script via task scheduler

Hello,
I am trying to execute powershell script via windows task scheduler which will forcefully delete all email in a mailbox, but I am getting the below errors
Operational Code - 2
Task Category - Action Completed --- Task Scheduler successfully completed task "\IL98" , instance "{2b193375-cbd2-4986-918d-3cfd4027d6b6}" , action "C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe" with return code 0.

When I am adding additional cmdlets in the script "Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted", I am getting Last Run Result 0X5 rest of the error remains the same.
Powershell version - 3.0
Task Scheduler version - 1.0
If I try to run the script manually via Exchange Powershell the script executes without any errors
Thanks in Advance,
Ankush Shah

I figured out the problem, there wasn't any problem with the script but I had to correct inputs in windows task scheuler
Below is the resolution:
Under Actions:
Program/Script --> ws\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe
Add Argument --> -noexit -command ". 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\V14\bin\RemoteExchange.ps1'; Connect-ExchangeServer -auto
; <filepath>"
Eariler I was writing the filepath after double quote "
Also I have selected the option "Run with Highest Privilages" to avoid
0x5 error

Running a .cmd file at startup using Task Scheduler on Windows 2012 R2 server

Hello,
I've recently tried to get a simple .cmd file running at server startup on my Windows 2012 R2 server.
The .cmd (test.cmd) file contains the following:
C:
cd C:\SomeFolder\
call Some.exe file "Argument1" "Argument2"
I've ensured that the local administrator user [someuser01] has full control of the C:\SomeFolder
I've also ensured that someuser01 is part of Log on as Batch Job
in Local Security Policy
To try running it as startup, I tried using Task Scheduler.
General Tab: I set the user (local administrator account [someuser01] ) and ticked the options
Run whether logged on or not, Do not Store Password, Run with Highest Privileges
Triggers: At System Startup, Ticked Enabled
Actions: Start a Program. Program/Script: test.cmd, Add arguments: [Blank], Start in: C:\SomeFolder
Conditions: Unticked all conditions
Settings: Ticked only the following --> Allow task to be run on demand, If the running task does not end...force to stop
Then I clicked OK and was prompted for someuser01's credentials.
I then restarted the server.
Upon logging in as administrator, I checked the task scheduler, and I found that the task did not run (Last Run Time: Never)
I've been able to run it manually (click Run on the task in Task scheduler) without any problems.
I just cannot get it to run at startup as I've instructed Task Scheduler to do.
Any ideas on what might be causing this problem?
Thanks.

Hello Dave Patrick,
I've also tried this approach and I came across this error after I try to enter someuser01's credentials:
An error has occured for the task sometask01. Error message: The following error was reported: A specified logon session does not exist. It may already have been terminated..
After doing some research, this new error is caused by a setting in Local Security:
Local Security Policy --> Security Options --> Network Access: Do not allow storage of passwords and credentials for network authentication --> Enabled
Unfortunately, I cannot disable this Security Policy due to our company's internal restrictions.
Just to clarify, the reason that the task does not run at startup is because of a logon failure because the password was not stored for
someuser01 ?
However, I cannot allow storage of the password because of our our company's internal restrictions.
Is there a possible workaround for this..?
Thanks!

Run powershell script against exchange using task schedule

I want to run this using task scheduler
Get-MailboxStatistics -Server mailserver | Select DisplayName, ItemCount, TotalItemSize | Sort-Object TotalItemSize -Descending | Export-CSV "\\pacetoputreport\report_$((Get-Date).ToString('MM-dd-yyyy')).csv"
I know I have to run some variation of this to launch the exchange module
C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe -noexit -command ". 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\V14\bin\RemoteExchange.ps1'; Connect-ExchangeServer -auto"
How can I do this in Task Scheduler? I have tried numerous times using various combinations, but nothing seems to work.
Thank you

You need to put the first part where you call powershell.exe in the Program/script part of the task, but the rest of it is put into the arguments section. As explained here
http://www.msexchange.org/kbase/ExchangeServerTips/ExchangeServer2013/Powershell/scheduling-exchange-powershell-task.html (which has versions for both 2010 and 2013, but since you list V14 in your filepath I assume you're using 2010) you'd need to
set the arguments to :
-version 2.0 -NonInteractive -WindowStyle Hidden -command ". 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\V14\bin\RemoteExchange.ps1'; Connect-ExchangeServer -auto; <Your Command>"

Unable to Configure a PowerShell Script to Run as a Scheduled Task

Hi ,
I have a powershell script from Dieters blog http://scug.be/dieter/2011/07/06/scom-2007-how-to-backup-your-unsealed-management-packs/#comment-1058 which backups the unsealed management packs in SCOM. I am able to run the script successfully in the powershell
prompt but when i schedule it as a task it fails with an error code 1.
"Task Scheduler successfully completed task "\Backup Unsealed Management Pack" , instance "{xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx}" , action "Powershell.exe" with return
code 1."
I am running the task using the highest privilages and have tried bypassing the script using and have configured the script as per http://www.metalogix.com/help/Content%20Matrix%20Console/SharePoint%20Edition/002_HowTo/004_SharePointActions/012_SchedulingPowerShell.htm
-ExecutionPolicy Bypass c:\scripts\myscript.ps1
Still i am unable to run the task without errors. Kindly assist.
Jesty

Hi Jesty,
Please make sure you have followed these steps to schedule a powershell script task:
1. Save the powershell script as .ps1 in local computer.
2. Right click the .ps1 file and run with powershell and check if the script can run successfully.
3. schedule task->action:Start a program->Program/script:powershell.exe->Add argument:-ExecutionPolicy Bypass c:\scripts\myscript.ps1

Executing powershell scripts via Task Scheduler

Hi,
I have a powershell script that I wrote that when executed from the shell works fine but when executed from task scheduler does not work.
In my script, an email is sent out based on the results of the execution. When I run this from the shell, email goes out, when scheduled, no email and there is no indication of errors having occurred anywhere in the system.
Has anyone run into a similar issue?
I did change my powershell execution policy to be unrestricted (both in the x86 and x64 consoles). I am running Windows 2008 R2.
Thanks - Greg.

Why won't this script run in task scheduler properly?

Hello,
I've created a script find all opened windows applications on the local computer. The script creates an html outfile to report the opened windows and who is logged in.
When I run this script from the Powershell ISE or from Powershell command line it works fine. When I schedule this script to run in windows Task Scheduler (either in Windows 7 or on Windows Server 2008) and I use 'Run only when user is logged in' the
script again runs fine and reports in the html file the opened windows.
But when I am logged into the server and I schedule this script to run in windows Task Scheduler (either in Windows 7 or on Windows Server 2008) and I use 'Run whether user is logged in or not' the script will run without error, it creates the html report,
but it does not list the opened windows applications That part of the report is missing.
Why would this happen? Do I need to change something in my script to make this script work whether or not someone is logged in?
Here is the script:
$a = "<style>"
$a = $a + "BODY{background-color:peachpuff;}"
$a = $a + "TABLE{border-width: 1px;border-style: solid;border-color: black;border-collapse: collapse;}"
$a = $a + "TH{border-width: 1px;padding: 0px;border-style: solid;border-color: black;background-color:thistle}"
$a = $a + "TD{border-width: 1px;padding: 0px;border-style: solid;border-color: black;background-color:PaleGoldenrod}"
$a = $a + "</style>"

Thank you.

Its hard to get a full grasp of the errors from task scheduler. Try rewriting the Action portion of the Scheduled Task in a cmd prompt (with or without the elevated credentials). When the cmd line runs, the cmd host will convert to a black
powershell host and you will be able to read the errors.
C:\> powershell.exe -command { update-help }
or
C:\> powershell.exe -noprofile -file c:\scripts\dosomething.ps1
I solved a similar problem this week. When I ran my script from within powershell, all the required modules are normally present and the script ran fine. It was pretty clear which module I forgot to load at the beginning of the script once I could
watch it from start to finish
or, your script could dump the Error logs to a text file.
$Error | select * | out-file c:\errors.txt
Not the point. Look at the task scheduler history first. If the history is not enabled enable it. If it shows no error code then the script ran successfully but had an internal error.
There is only one place that an error can occur. This will trap it and set the exit code which will be visible in the event history:
$a=@'
<style>
BODY{
background-color:peachpuff;
TABLE{
border-width: 1px;
border-style: solid;
border-color: black;

background-color:thistle;
TD{

border-style: solid;

</style>

This is really an exercise in how to manage background tasks.
Using an error log is good assuming it is not the file system that you are having an issue with

Powershell commands won't run in Task Scheduler

On a Windows 2008 R2 member server (Win 2003 domain), I can run a batch file like this on command line:
"powershell.exe -noexit -noprofile -executionpolicy Unrestricted -file C:\Bin\Scripts\BitsTransfer-Server05.ps1"
However, the batch file fails as a scheduled task, with following error:
"Start-BitsTransfer : The operation being requested was not performed because the user has not logged on to the network. The specified service does not exist."
The job is scheduled under a service account which is a member of Domain Admin group. And, yes, I have checked "Run whether user is logged on or not" and "run with highest privileges". Logging on as that account to the server did not make a difference.
I am able to run the scheduled jobs on other servers with the same account and same configuration without a problem. Thanks for any help.
Jay Kulsh

Jay
Although you may have already found a resolution to your issue, I'm still going to post this note to benefit someone else. I ran into a similar issue.
I basically used a different domain account to test and the task ran just fine. A couple of things to keep in mind and make sure of:
1. The account being use to execute task must have "Logon as batch job"
rights under the local security policy of the server. You must specified the account you need to run scripts/bat files.
2. Make sure you are entering the correct password characters
3. Tasks in 2008 R2 don't run interactively specially if you run them as "Run whether user is logged on or not". This will likely fail specially if on the script
you are looking for any objects\resource specific to a user-profile when the task was created as the powershell session will need that info to start, otherwise it will start and immediately end.
Example for $Path:
mapped drive (\\server\share) x:\ vs. Actual UNC path \\server\share
4.
Review your steps, script, arguments. Sometimes the smallest piece can make a big difference even if you have done this process many times. I have missed several times a character on the password or a semi-colon sometimes.
Check the link provided and hopefully you or someone else can benefit from this info. Be safe.

Script doesn't work via Task Scheduler

I've got the script below that works fine in an elevated PS window but when run as a sceduled task produces a last run result of 0x80070001 which I think is strangely something to do with Windows backup after some googling!
$LimitDay = 21
$limit = (Get-Date).AddDays(-$LimitDay)
# Path to Recurse
get-childitem -Path \\mainserver\backups\myfolder -Force |where {$_.psiscontainer -and $_.lastwritetime -le $limit}|foreach { remove-item $_.fullname -recurse -force -confirm:$false }
The task is set to run with the highest privileges and usin a domain user service account, I have tried to deleteand recreate the job as well.
I'm trying to remove old backup folders based on their modified date and the contents, but not the contents when the modified date is valid e.g. server backups so config files date's never change but the folder to be deleted should still be recognised.

Hi,
in the Scheduler try to call the script with the whole path like this:
powershell.exe -noexit &'C:\DATA\Scripts\myscript.ps1'
Regards
I'd use -File instead (and drop -noexit).
Action: Start a program
Program/script: C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe
Add arguments: -File C:\Path\To\Script.ps1
