GFE 3.0 Installation can fail due to Windows Task Scheduler settings. Task Scheduler should be running and set to run automatically on startup. Please follow the steps to update settings and retry GFE Installation.
- Start the SCM by running services.msc command
- Look for Task Scheduler service
- Check to see it is running i.e. Status = "Running"
- Check to see it is set to run automatically on startup i.e. Startup Type = "Automatic"
If Task Scheduler service is not running,
o Right Click on the Task Scheduler row in SCM
o Click "Start" button on the right click menu
o Retry GFE Installation after Task Scheduler shows Status = "Running"
If Task Scheduler service is not set to startup Automatically,
o Double Click Task Scheduler row in SCM to Open the Task Scheduler Properties dialog
o Set Startup type to "Automatic"
o Click Ok to save settings and close the dialog
If service is disabled,
o Start the Registry editor by running regedit.exe command
o Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Schedule
o Find the DWORD called start, change its value to 2.
o Reboot
o Start the GFE3 installation
