Scheduled tasks: Is this correct?

Thread needs solution

For some reason when Windows 10 gets a fast build it messes with the scheduler, I think, as it failed to run the scheduled task after I updated last night.

I used the schedmgr and zapped all the tasks to start over. After creating seven tasks I used the schedmgr to get list and I got this:

inst=den start=yes loc task=0-0 > get list

Michael, are you doing Validation for your seven tasks that you have created?  If so, this may account for the extra tasks you are seeing as validation seems to run under a separate 'script' from what I've seen on my own system.

It may be worth looking at some of the actual Scripts listed in your post - open a few with Notepad and look at what is configured for the task to perform.  The scripts are held at C:\ProgramData\Acronis\TrueImageHome\Scripts folder.
