RoboTask forum

Hi,

Seems, that RoboTask is very mighty tool, I'm shocked
Thank you very much, authors!

However I could not neither assign a simpler trigger to start an action once (not periodically) at some system time nor after XX minutes/hours/days after assigning of the task or after some other event starts etc.

I can't believe myself, but as well I can't find any proper options to solve these simplest tasks (it's the very basic functionality of Windows regular Scheduler).

If you want to start the task at specified time, look at the "Scheduler" event.

If you want to start the task only once, go to "Advanced" tab of task editor and look at the "Action after completion" parameter. Set it to "Delete task" or "Disable Task".

Thank you, this answers one of my questions. However there was another question too. Is it possible to use RoboTask as a simple timer, that is to start a task after X sec/min/hours after starting the proper task. I mean the following:
1) I create the task to suspend the computer 30 min after the starting of this task.
2) Once I start this task manually pressing some key combination say at 12:00 o'clock and RoboTask suspends the machine at 12:30.
3) Another time I start this task manually say at 16:00 o'clock and RoboTask suspends the machine at 16:30.

Is it possible?

Why not?

the task will be such:

Pause 1800 sec //30 minutes
Suspend computer //see "Log Off" action
