[inforwarrior]

my fellow comrades , i have a small yet a complex issue i have a bat file that runs via scheduled task at 1am , why is it that when i log off windows scheduled runs and the bat files run but this exe does not run

however when i lock my computer all works fine.

Sounds normal and it looks like you found a soultion/workaround

I'm pretty use logging off basically suspends the activity for the user...

As i work for the local council it can get very porlical in many ways , do you have any MS KB that supports your theory.


yes i have found a work around but i need evident to proof to my seniors that i can't find in any web sites that i have found.

Here's your proof and another work around:

Difference Between Log Off and Switch User Commands

SUMMARY
When Fast User Switching functionality is turned on in Microsoft Windows XP, and you click Log Off on the Start menu, you have the option to click a Log Off button or a Switch User button. If you click the Log Off button, you will quit all running programs and disconnect all network connections for the current session, and the session will not remain active. If you click the Switch User button, all active programs and network connections will continue to run (the session remains active), and you will return to the Welcome screen, where other users can log on. The user's session will remain active until the computer is restarted or the user is logged off of the session.
