InputRegKey.exe

NetWorkCommand.exe

This utility is described in detail in the "Network Command utility" chapter.

The utility is completely self-contained and does not require activation.

RTServiceMGR.exe

The RoboTask Service Manager is a separate utility within the installation package of RoboTask. The RoboTask Service Manager allows to install the RoboTask Service and perform the necessary initial settings of the service. Read more here

RG.exe

Allows you to run the command line with administrator privileges. Please note that you will need manual confirmation to allow the operation, if UAC (User Access Control) is enabled in the system and the current user is not an administrator. UAC is enabled by default.

Usage:

RG.exe [/p] <command_line>

/p - RG waits when the command will be finished

RoboTaskRuntime.exe

The runtime module is designed to run a prepared task without the main RoboTask application. However, the Runtime module uses the entire engine to run the task.

Usage:

RoboTaskRuntime.exe <Task_File_Name> [/stop|/nonstop] [/out:<full_file_name>] [/taskparam:<task_parameters>]

Command line parameters:

<Task_File_Name> - full name of task file

/stop - (optional) if you want to stop the application before exiting anyway to read the log

/nonstop - (optional) the application is forced to continue running and exit even if the task stops with an error. In this case, it is better to write the log to a file (see the /out: parameter)

/out - (optional) output task execution log to a file

/taskparam - (optional) task parameters
