Re: cron and hibernate

Thank you for this definitive but negative answer. It saves me time to try in vain. Are there any alternative ways to do the same thing as cron? I only heard about WinCron. Thanks.


How about Windows own TaskScheduler?

I should have mentioned it in the last email.


I have been using Windows own TaskScheduler so far. What I don't like it
is that it cannot run jobs silently at background, particularly when a job
is a batch file or a bash script. Whenever such a job is started, an annoying
DOS window pops up and it also occupies my taskbar.
