General FAQs:

• Question: TaskRunner seems to use a lot of memory, and sometimes the memory usage will jump up, even when I'm not doing anything... is there a memory leak in it?
• Answer: The short answer is.... no. If that's good enough for you, I suggest you stop reading now.  And in case you enjoy pain and boredom.... here's the long answer. Applications built using .NET apportion memory a little more "generously" then other platforms do. When the memory use says "25MB", it may not actually be using that much, but the OS has set that much aside for it. If another application needs that memory, the OS will release it, so you won't have an issue with running out of physical memory... it just looks that way. When you minimize a .NET app, the memory that was "set aside" for that app is then "released" (even though it wasn't all being used in the first place), and you can see that it is actually using much less memory (although, the amount you see after you minimize the app isn't quite accurate either... real helpful, ain't it?). And if you haven't gone into a coma by this point, you can check out this site for an even more in-depth explanation.

Task Scheduler FAQs:

• Question: I ran a file/executable, and it encountered errors, but TaskRunner didn't notify me. It just said that the Task "had ended".
• Answer: For the Run Executable/Open File action, TaskRunner can only tell you if it succeeded or failed in starting the file or executable. After your file is running, obviously it could be doing any number of things (i.e. whatever you programmed it to do) and there's no way for TaskRunner to tell if it succeeded or failed in doing those things.

• Question: Hey... I just upgraded from version 2.2 to version 3.x. What the #%@! happened and all my settings and tasks?!?!
• Answer: The backend datastore and pretty much all of the architechture of the TaskRunner was upgraded/changed in version 3.0, so none of the settings you had in version 2.2 will be able to carry over. There is a warning during the installation of 3.0 letting you know this... but we all know that nobody actually reads the instructions during an installation.
