Question : Have a problem with schtasks command in a tiny batch file
Hello, This looks like a simple case of where to add the speech marks to a one line batch file but it is driving me nuts.
We want to schedule a task to run a file every week and i need to do this on multiple machines. I was going to add a .bat file which simply says
schtasks /create /tn runrecon /tr "C:\Program Files\JAMF Software\WPP\submitInvento
ry.vbs" /ru "System" /sc WEEKLY /mo 1 /d TUE /st 13:30:00
It says it completes successfully but when i check task scheduler I find that the task is there to run at the right times and under the right user but the action it is going to take says start a program and the details say C:\Program Files\JAMF Software\WPP\submitInvento
ry.vbs
ok so far...
double clicking that says that the program is C:\Program
and the argument is Files\JAMF Software\WPP\submitInvento
ry.vbs
this looks wrong and as if it is something to do with the space in program files.
If i copy all the argument txt and paste it in to the program area i get this message..
it appears as though arguments have been included in the program text box. Do you want to run the following program:
C:\program
with the following arguments: Files\JAMF Software\WPP\submitInvento
ry.vbs
can anyone help so that the space in program files doesnt confuse task scheduler?

Give this a try:
schtasks /create /tn runrecon /tr "CSCRIPT \"C:\Program Files\JAMF Software\WPP\submitInvento
ry.vbs\"" /ru "System" /sc WEEKLY /mo 1 /d TUE /st 13:30:00
