    Task Scheduler - Idle Condition Not Honored


    This should be pretty simple but really has me stumped. I have a scheduled task that is specified to only run if the computer is idle for 50 minutes. This works on Windows 7, but on Windows 10 it never honors the idle condition. It always runs immediately. This happens on multiple Windows 10 machines, but never on Windows 7 ones. Any idea what might be wrong?

    Hi, this seemed ok:

    Had it set to launch notepad: once displayed after a minute or so, that then vanished when I moved the mouse.
