SyncToy Scheduled Event

[SkipVought]

I got a tip in thread1583-1491554, regarding SynchToy, and it seems to work great when I run it directly.

However, when I run in a scheduled event, after logging into my desktop, no files are transferred. The event runs sucessfully. I simply run it with a -R switch.

I am syncing a laptop with a desktop, from the laptop. There is a User Name and password, and I must be logged in thru the Network for SyncToy to work.

How can I do the login as a scheduled event also, and how can I make SyncToy work as s scheduled event?

have you thought about using a batch file to login prior to running the SyncToy program?

something like that :
Set objNetwork = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Network")
strLocalDrive = "M:"
strRemoteShare = "\\server or ip\share"
strPer = "FALSE"
strUsr = "username"
strPas = "password"
objNetwork.MapNetworkDrive strLocalDrive, strRemoteShare, strPer, strUsr,
strPas
