Is there any way to pause and resume multiple Windows batch synchronization tasks without going to the Task Scheduler and disabling/reenabling each task one by one?

Thanks,

Gary

You could write a batch script. If you would be pausing/starting the same jobs every time, this would be pretty easy. What does this have to do with FFS?

I'm using Windows Task Scheduler to launch FFS batch jobs. I'm a new user and I wanted to know if there is a way in FFS that I missed for pausing/reenabling multiple tasks.

Thanks for the suggestion to use a batch script.

Gotcha! No, Task Scheduler is simply running FFS as you define. FFS and Task Scheduler have nothing to do with each other software-wise.

Looks pretty straightforward luckily!
