≈ Comments Off on Task Scheduler error “Action failed to start”

Interesting point in the Windows Server 2008 Task Scheduler that tripped me up (thanks to http://www.arcomit.co.uk/support/kb.aspx?kbid=000058 for pointing out the problem to me). Don’t include quotes in the Start In: value for your task, even if the path contains spaces. If there are spaces, the Program/Script: value must be surrounded by quotes, but the Start In: value has to be free of quotes…weird.
