Scheduled Task On Win XP After Hibernate
I am using TIH 11 (build 8101) on XP Pro SP-3.
I have created a scheduled backup job to run middle of the night. In doing so I did NOT check the box during scheduling which has the backup job run if it was missed while the computer was off.
This computer is often hibernated after use so it is usually in that state in the middle of the night when the backup job would otherwise run. That's ok with me.
I note, however, that when I resume the hibernated computer, a missed backup job starts running IMMEDIATELY. I would have thought this would only happed if I did check the box. I have reviewed the schedule on the backup task and am sure the checkbox is not checked.
What am I doing wrong here and how can I get the backup job to NOT startup upon restore from hibernation?
Thanks

Thanks for this response. I have, in fact, previously run Acronis tasks from the Windows scheduler and command line as you point out. I did find, at that time, that if the task is supposed to send emails, that never happened when run this way. I am not sure why but I did post to the old forum about this and was told this was the reason why my my email did not come. I wonder, though if there is not something I can do like use the Windows scheduler to wake up the machine prior to the run of Acronis and they have Acronis run something after that puts the machine back to sleep. I seem to recall, however, that commands are run before verifications are complete. So, if true, that would be a problem as I ALWAYS verify.
