Actions for Task Scheduler?


Recommended Posts

Can anyone help me set up Task Scheduler to run a scan? I need the Trigger/Actions/Arguments etc.

Working on running CCleaner then Malwarebytes then Spysweeper then Windows Defender all while i sleep.

I put together a timeframe on averages for each program to do its thing. I figure I can do them all in 4-5 hours automated.

Thanks

Ok. Found what I needed. Here is it if anyone else needs it.

Open Task Scheduler

Create a new Basic Task. call it what you want

General: Check Run with highest privileges

Actions: Start a program

>Settings Program Script: "C:\Program Files\Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware\mbam.exe"

>Add Arguments: /fullscan

Conditions: I checked wake the computer to run this task

All other options I left the defaults a new basic task includes
