I have one computer that will not run the Solidworks scheduled tasks. I am attempting to print out multiple drawings using the Solidworks Task Scheduler. This successfully works on one computer, so I know it is not the files or the way I am doing it. Essentially, the scheduled task never runs, always staying at a status of "Scheduled".
Any thoughts?
Good to know there is a work-around, even if it is a bit of a chore. Found the SPR for the same error in Win 10-1703. (SPR #:1032718). I've been having pretty good luck with the free version of #Task.
This might sound silly but check the date/time on the computer. If you're scheduling it as a future event and your clock is off...
My work computer had a similar error that didn't get corrected until the (then) latest Windows update was rolled out.
Daniel,
There is a known issue, where the SolidWorks Task Scheduler, requires the date to be in an American Format if the SolidWorks Forum add-in has been turned on within SolidWorks.
If you make sure that the Forum add-in is turned off within SolidWorks and also as previously mentioned check that the date format on your machine is correct.
Let us know how it goes.

I had the same problem. I noticed it after Windows 10 had upgraded to version 1607 from version 1511. When I rolled the Windows version 1607 back down to 1511 it started to work again. I ended up uninstalling Solidworks, doing the Windows 10 version 1607 update, and then re-installing Solidworks. I was on Solidworks 2016 SP3.0 in case that matters.
