Hey Tech People!

How do I keep Task Schedual from starting up? I want to disable the bloody thing. It eats up system resources. Can anybody help?

Thanks.

Hello.

Sorry it didn't work. However, I didn't edit the registry entries....

I don't feel that confortable with it. Even with Xsetup. So if somebody could tell me exactly which entries to remove?!?

Thank You
JD

Paul's correct. If you do have "Windows Critical Update Notification" loaded, TaskScheduler will keep turning itself back on at startup even after having selected "Stop Using Task Scheduler".

To get rid of it, do this,

Start>Settings>CP>Add/RemovePrograms. Scroll down and locate "Windows Critical Update Notification" and double left click on it to uninstall it.

Then go back and click on MyComputer>ScheduledTasks. Now click on Advanced>Stop Using Task Scheduler.
