NT 4 AT 

SCHEDULER

The Windows Task Scheduler is the recommended tool for running TE scripts at specific 

times, but you can also use the NT 4 AT scheduler.  

If you want to use the Windows NT 4 AT Scheduler to run TE scripts at specific times, 

follow these guidelines:  

A user must be logged in at the time the task is scheduled to run, though the 

computer can be locked. 

Include the /interactive switch in each task. 

Include the full path to the script with the file name and extension.   

The following example runs a script at 2:12 pm, every day of the week. The script is on the 

computer s C drive, in the example folder, and is named te test.vbs.  

Example 

at 14:12 /interactive /every:M,T,W,Th,F,S,Su 

c:\example\te test.vbs
