Yes, I have seen this too.

SW07 sp2.0

I ran the Update Properties, but canceled out of it. When I opened SW
again, my background colors settings, and several others, possibly
everything, was set back to defaults.

Do you have more info on this?

No, I don't. And I can't report it either because the customer portal
isn't working for me! So if you can, report it.

Sorry I couldn't offer more help,

Daniel

Did you kill the process before it was finished?

Did you have to start the swBOEngine.exe manually or does it start
automatically?

Had you previously tried to run the task without the swBOEngine.exe
running?

Had you disabled the swBOEngine.exe as a startup process?


I had done all of these things. I'm just trying to see if it is
repeatable without doing violence to my system a second time.

I never canceled the process. I ran it normally everytime. Actually I
haven't used task scheduler in over a month. Sorry I'm not more help, I
just haven't had time to work on it.

Daniel

This isn't unique to SW2007, or task scheduler. I have this happen
often (3-4 times a week). I have no idea why it happens. Could be due
to a crash (SW ctd's several times a day at best (worst??)). SW2006 Sp
4.1.
