- Start
- Control Panel
- Scheduled Tasks
- Add a Scheduled Task
When you have finished creating the task you need to need to double-click on the Updater in the Scheduled task list and then type the following command in the "Run" edit box:
"C:\Program Files\FSI\F-PROT\FP-Updater\Updater.exe" /INTERNET /QUIT /HIDDEN
NB! To avoid user privilege conflicts, please make sure the Windows Scheduler runs under the same user name as the FP-Updaters' folder.
