Good news!

Calibe does run when scheduled. It seems that I had to enable a button in Windows Task Manager to Show processes from all users, when I did this, I saw calibre.exe running from a schedule run.

Now here is something odd:

For some reason the calibre app does not appear on my desktop running nor on the tray bar or quick bar. It seems to be hidden.

I currently don't have the option to have it run on the traybar, so I don't now what the hell? I guess the normal setup of running Calibre without any options will make it run in the background and hidden?

Is this normal? Or is this a new default feature when running apps with the Task Schedule in Win 7?

P.S. it seems you guys fixed the issue when getting an email update, it now links to the forum and not the mobile/mobi theme?

Quick update:
the schedule for calibre must run with this feature enabled: Run with highest privileges. Or else it will not run.
