Hi. I've setup an instance of Calibre through Task Manager in Windows 7 so that it will open early in the morning and download the news articles I am interested in reading. The task is set to repeat every day. It is also set to end the task and close Calibre after 30 min, which it appears to do, but then when it goes to start the next day it does not start.

Is this a limitation of the GUI?

Writing BAT files for everything would be very time consuming and I would like to avoid doing that if possible.

Any ideas on how I can accomplish this?
