I am working with Solidworks 2013 SP3.0 and am trying to use task scheduler to produce rendered or non-rendered animations. Unfortunately the scheduler runs the file and says it is complete along with a correct log file but does not create any file. No file in the location directed or any even on the desktop. No error message or anything.
The scheduler works fine for image rendering but not for the annimations. Let me know if anyone has a fix.
Same issue here, rendered image is kept with in the "last rendered image" option from photoview feature tree - but file not saved to external directory nominated in hte schedule render option. Dont know whats going on. I have administrative permission on this machine??
I was having a similar issue before, but when I updated to SP 4.0 it seems to have fixed it. From what I have read it seems like its an issue with the version of windows you are running.
Hi Shawn, a little kick for this topic, I am having the same problem.
I read somewhere that it could be an issue with not being logged in as administrator and thus Task schedular not having the authorisation to save the file. But as far as I know I am logged in as administrator, just having a single desktop running a single version of sw.
In my case my overnight image renderings were succesfully completed by the task scheduler, but I can't find the files anywhere, so they were not saved. It is a pitty that you can't view the files directly from the task scheduler.
