@griffusmc Greetings from the HP Community!

 

Check the Scheduled Task is Enabled

First, you should check the triggers for the task. It might be the case that the task isn’t enabled, in which case it won’t run. You can check the triggers as follows.

  1. Enter ‘Task Scheduler’ into windows search box and select Task Scheduler to open its window below.

    Scheduled task runs manually but not automatically
     
  2. Browse to the task in the Task Scheduler library, and then double-click it to open its window and select the Triggers tab as below.
  3. Is the task enabled there? If not, press the Edit button.

  4. Then select the Enabled check box and press the OK button.
