AutoTask 2000 Task Scheduler 3.76

AutoTask 2000 Task Scheduler 3.76 provides you with an useful task scheduler which is designed specifically for Windows.

It is an extremely versatile and powerful event scheduling software that can be ran as a service or as a desktop application in the background.

It has very flexible scheduling and conditional triggers for running various task and has also the ability to run multiple commands per task, much like mini scripts or macros.

The concept behind a task is quite simple. A set of actions performed to retrieve a certain result. You build a set of actions or commands that need to run sequentially to complete a task. Starting and stopping programs, sending keystrokes to a specific window, sending DDE commands are just a few of the available commands. Logic commands such as delay, wait for program to finish allow for greater control of your tasks.

With AutoTask, you can define intervals such as every 5 minutes, every other day, every third working day, every second Tuesday of the month, twice a year etc.

Along with the ability to define intervals, you can also set run times. AutoTask 2000 will allow you to launch a task based on certain conditions being true. Conditions such as whether or not a file exists, or whether not a specific program is running, or whether or not a specific window is visible are just a few of available triggers that you can define. This allows you to build logic into your tasks.

Whether you use your computer at home or work, you probably have many tasks you perform routinely. Backups, downloads, uploads, system cleanup, retrieving and processing email, daily, weekly or monthly reports are just a few examples where AutoTask 2000 can help and simplify matters in the most natural way.

AutoTask provides great flexibility with many great features, and gives you control over your routine tasks. Versatile and flexible event scheduling options give you full control over when and how often a task is run. Watch triggers - such as 'file exist', 'application running' - and many more - allow you to run your tasks when needed, rather than by a set schedule.

Whether your needs are simple or complex AutoTask can handle them!

Major Features:

1. Multiple Commands Per Task

• The concept behind a task is quite simple. A set of actions is performed to retrieve a certain result. When you are manually completing a task, you do step one, then step two, then step three and so on, until you reach your required result. That is also the concept with which AutoTask is designed. You build a set of actions, or commands, that need to run sequentially to complete a task. Commands such as starting and stopping programs, sending keystrokes to a specific window, sending DDE commands, are just a few of the available commands and options. Logic commands such as 'delay' or 'wait for program to finish', allow for greater control of your tasks. Whether your needs are simple or complex AutoTask can handle them.
  

2. Ability To Trigger Tasks Based On Conditions

• AutoTask 2000 will allow you to launch a task based on certain conditions being true. Conditions such as whether or not a file exists, or whether not a specific program is running, or whether or not a specific window is visible are just a few of available triggers that you can define. This allows you to build logic into your tasks.
  

3. A Powerful Scheduling Engine

• Scheduling flexibility is the key to successful automation. AutoTask’s scheduling engine goes beyond the basics (daily, weekly, monthly) of a scheduler. With AutoTask, you can define intervals such as - for example - every 5 minutes, every other day, every third working day, every second Tuesday of the month, twice a year etc. Along with the ability to define intervals, you can also set run times. For example, you could schedule a task to run every 5 minutes but only between 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. Or you could tell AutoTask to run a task only on workdays or holidays.
  

4. Runs As Service / Background Process

• On Windows NT, 2000, XP or 2003 AutoTask runs as a service. This allows for many types of tasks to be ran in the background, even when the users are logged off. On Windows 95, 98 and ME which do not run services, the program runs as a background process, out of the way of your regular work.
