LocknetSSmith 6 Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 Does anyone know if Windows various power plans affect ESET's ability to perform a scheduled task? I am working with a client whom has a scheduled Smart Scan to kick off at 2:30am every day, but the scan has not been running. The computers are left powered on at all times, but I noticed today that the hard disks are set to hibernate if idle for a certain amount of time. If the computer is in "sleep mode," I'm assuming then that ESET's scheduled tasks will not run? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution Chadh 45 Posted September 3, 2013 Solution Share Posted September 3, 2013 Hello LocknetSSmith, If the computer, or its hard drives, are in hibernate or sleep mode, no scheduled task will run. In addition, if a scan is running, the task will stop if the computer enters a power saving state. Thank you, ChadH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
