Optimize and Defrag Schedule issue

So i have had this to TRIM my SSD weekly it as such it is scheduled as such



Problem being it has NEVER did this weekly daily automatically I will randomly check this and it will say 20 ~40 days since last trim cause that how long it is before i actual check... it has always done, there is also NO task for defrag in the task scheduler well there is one if I look in microsoft under in task scheduler window it is enable but it never ran Do i actual have to manual set the trigger for it to work? cause EVEN when manual set the trigger to Weekly/Daily/Monthy/Once it does not actual run. it get listed in Active Tasks, but it not ran, and as soon as run defrag again it want to reset the schedule that never worked in first place



there for trim is not being ran automatically by windows 10 and trim dont work in window 10 in samsung magician . why is it doing this and how do i fix it. and yes I ran defrag as admin

And my HDD is schedules cause I use a custom script in Mydefrag to defrag it, I just want windows to run a trim once week and it never does it

I know this is an old post but it is the only one I could find that addressed the same issue I was looking for. I too have set up the Windows Defrag system scheduler an no matter what I set it to it never runs; i.e. set it for monthly an going back an looking at it it may say 'it has been 90 days since last optimization etc. Does this thing really even work? Since W10 was released I've had to manually launch the defragger an run it ( I have 5 drives 1 SSD 4 HDD) all it does is run the TRIM function for the SSD but the other HDD's need defragging each time I install a new program or remove one.
Is there a setting in Services that I need to look at? Looking I haven't seen anything that relates to that sort of thing.

I was thinking the same thing...looking at it all the correct check boxes are checked though...guess I'll stick with doing it manually...

Check that your Task scheduler defrag task does not have the idle condition set -

• Task scheduler library, Microsoft, Windows , Defrag
• While you are there, check that its Action tab correctly refers to the drive you are investigating. If you have been doing any repartitioning work the task definition might not have changed automatically.

The idle condition used to be set by default in Windows 7 but I thought it had been changed in Windows 10.
If the idle condition is set then it is perfectly possible that optimisation never runs.
If, like me, you turn off / sleep your computer when you are not using it then it will never be idle.

If automatic optimisation [defrag, trim] really is not running despite the correct settings having been made then there is nothing stopping you from creating your own defrag task.

• You can crib the settings from the default task definition then just tailor them to your own requirements.

I just do it on a manual basis. I have an SSD and too much can shorten it's life.
