Using Win XP, the tasks scheduled via TDA showed up in the Windows Scheduled Task list, with a cute little toadlike icon.  
Having switched to Win 7, I can only see the Scheduled tasks if I open a .tas file in TDA and view the Schedule from there.  
Is there a setting that allows me to see the scheduled tasks via the windows utility, without having to start Toad?

Please try to schedule a task in TDA while running TDA as administrator (right-click TDA icon and select Run as administrator from the pop-up). Does it make any difference?

Thanks,

Igor.

I found that this was not necessary - the tasks show up in the ‘Root’ Library folder (see attached), I just didn’t see them until now. Thanks though.
