Schtasks.exe error

As of this week when I shut down my computer which has Vista Home Premium, I
receive an error message for Schtasks.exe saying it failed to initialize. By
clicking okay, the computer continues to shut down but I cannot find an
answer for this problem. I have not added or changed anything that I can
think of on this computer and I use it daily in my shop. Can someone give me
an idea on how to solve this or a direction to look for the solution?

That's an odd one. Schtasks.exe is used for scheduled tasks from the command
line, but the fact that it's running on shutdown is a bit strange.

Event viewer may provide a bit more information on the nature of the task
that's failing to initialise. You could look in there for more info.

( Start button ) > eventvwr.exe

hi jgrimm

i've got the same problem recently.. after i installed the adobe creative
suite (cs)..
but even after i try removing the cs... it still occurred...

and so i did what amazon935..remove java.. but that was not the cause either
for me...

finally i just removed the adobe PDF on the Internet Explorer Bar.. and
apparently the problem is gone..

try troubleshooting on it.. hopefully this help
