Syncrify uses Windows scheduler to run backups. In certainly condition you might want to create these tasks manually. One example is when you run Syncrify client on Windows 2000, which does not support the new APIs used on Windows XP and onwards.
Steps to create a scheduled task manual
Start Control Panel
Select Scheduled Tasks and double click it.
Add a new task. This will start a wizard that will prompt you for a set of questions.
Refer to the screen shots below to see what to type in each screen.
IMPORTANT Towards the end you will see a screen that will ask if you want to open Advanced Properties. Check that box and click Finish.
Modify the path specified in the Run field. Add the name of your profile followed by .syncrify. This will cause Syncrify client to run backup for the given profile. For example:
Before
C:\PROGRA~1\SYNCRI~1\SYNCRI~1.EXE
After
C:\PROGRA~1\SYNCRI~1\SYNCRI~1.EXE oscar.syncrify
oscar is the name of the profile in this above example.
