Hello, I am new to wincron and I have been tasked with changing the time when one of the tasks specified in the 'wincron_user.tg' file is initiated.
I changed the time in its entry in the 'wincron_user.tg' file last night and then saved the file. The idea was to change the time that the task started from 08:00 to 05:30. However, the task still started at 08:00 this morning, despite my change.
Is there something else that I need to do? Do I have to stop and start something to make it pick up the changed 'wincron_user.tg' file?
Please help.

Yes, after saving the file, you need to 'Load' it by pressing the load button.
Alternatively, you can restart WinCron and it will auto load the files it has been instructed to load.

Note: If you have a script firing at 08:00 and then edit it to fire at 11:00, save it and load it, you will now have both scripts loaded unless you added the –exclusive switch to the script name. To avoid this, it is best to just Stop/Restart WinCron when making these kinds of changes.
