>I gather from earlier posts in this thread that you are interested in working with the Windows Task Scheduler, in order to start or stop tasks that may be scheduled to run periodically, over time spans of multiple minutes, hours or even days.

>I believe that is a different thing from System.Threading.Tasks.TaskScheduler, which appears to handle thread queueing, execution and management at a fine-grained level, of the order of seconds at most, or fractions of a second more typically: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd997402.aspx . I don't think that's what you want to do. That namespace seems to be a .Net implementation of an OS scheduler: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scheduling_%28computing%29

Yes, I discovered that after.

I also tried with Win32_ScheduledJob but that is only compliant with tasks created with Win32_ScheduledJob class or the At.exe utility. The newest versions of Windows are not compliant with that approach. There is a command line utility but that is not what I want.
