| | Task Scheduler wont start When I try to schedule a task on Vista, I have noticed the Task Scheduler service is not running. The I went to Control Panel->Administrator Tools->Service to start it manually but it refused to start and gave some 'file not found' message. The service was marked as automatic but it is not running while all other automatic services are. Anyone seen this problem? Thanks, Sam |

| | RE: Task Scheduler wont start It is dependent on Event Log Service but that suffers the same problem - cannot find file specified.

| | RE: Task Scheduler wont start Yes I have the same exact problem. I have ranted enough, or maybe not ![]() Under Error 4201 post. This is the same issue.. out of the blue Event Log service will not start and config tab is grayed out!! Not one single blurb on MS Support site and this has been an issue since Feb. 2007. I find so many posts with this exact problem but no resolution or explination.. The fact that MS won't even acknowledge the issue means they are flipping scared clueless script kitties that don't know what they he** they have released. Post this issue as many places as you can... too many folks have just said screw it and either disable Event log service and purchase third party logging or they wipe and reload... Incidently when you wipe and reload the problem does come back after a few weeks!!! "System restore does not work" Please post if you get an answer or a fix. Thanks!!
