How do I enable/disable a scheduled task using Python?
I can get to a task:
self.ts=pythoncom.CoCreateInstance
(taskscheduler.CLSID_CTaskScheduler,None,pythoncom.CLSCTX_INPROC_SERVER,taskscheduler.IID_ITaskScheduler)
self.ts.SetTargetComputer(u'\\\\SomeServer')
self.tasks=self.ts.Enum()
for task in self.tasks:
self.t=self.ts.Activate(task)
if self.t.GetAccountInformation().lower().find('SomeUser')
>=0:
print self.t.GetFlags()
I can find if a task is enabled or not and toggle it:
disabled=self.t.GetFlags() &
taskscheduler.TASK_FLAG_DISABLED == taskscheduler.TASK_FLAG_DISABLED
print 'Originally Disabled: %s'%(disabled,)
if disabled:
self.t.SetFlags(self.t.GetFlags() &
~taskscheduler.TASK_FLAG_DISABLED)
else:
self.t.SetFlags(self.t.GetFlags() |
taskscheduler.TASK_FLAG_DISABLED)
disabled=self.t.GetFlags() &
taskscheduler.TASK_FLAG_DISABLED == taskscheduler.TASK_FLAG_DISABLED
print 'Recheck Disabled: %s'%(disabled,)
... "Recheck Disabled" shows that the value "says" it has been
disabled.
The problem is that if I run it again and again, "Originally Disabled"
is always the same. In other words, "Recheck Disabled" does NOT
stick. It's like I'm missing a .commit()
For example:
First run ...
8388
Originally Disabled: True
Recheck Disabled: False
Second run ...
8388
Originally Disabled: True
Recheck Disabled: False
How do I disable and enable a scheduled task in Windows using python?
