Duh, just replying to myself to let you know that there's an even simpler way to get the effect you wanted, and you don't even need 'run.exe'. You can directly schedule 'bash.exe' to run in the Task Scheduler. The command line to schedule for execution is as follows: C:\cygwin\bin\bash.exe --login -c "/myfolder/myscript.sh" -SM -- -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
