Editing a scheduled task

You can change when a task will occur, and whether and how often the task recurs. For example, you might want to change a scheduled task so that it starts at a later time than originally planned, or so that it runs daily instead of weekly.

To edit a scheduled task

  1. From the left-hand pane, expand Picture of the Tasks icon Tasks and choose Picture of the Scheduled icon Scheduled.

  2. From the right-hand pane, right-click the task and from the menu, choose Edit Schedule.

  3. The task schedule details are displayed. You can change the time and date of the task, if and when the task will be repeated, and if and when the task will expire.

  4. Click OK.

Notes

  • To view a selected scheduled task's details, you can also click the Edit Schedule button on a task's Properties window.

  • When you edit a scheduled task assigned to another user, you become the task's owner.

  • You cannot edit a scheduled system task.
