Description: This Task will give the computer the ability to start your server automatically when you log on.
Security Options:

(Run with highest privileges is not needed for MCDzienny)
You may select "Hidden" if you hate seeing your players chat
(don't do it)Configured for: "Whatever Operating System you have"
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Triggers Tab:
1. Click New
2. Settings:
Begin the task: At Log on
(If you have parents who use the computer you can try using Begin the task: On connection to user session
[Then Select Specific User: Your Username...and Change User if needed]
3. Advanced Settings:
Repeat Task Every 1 minute -"You need to type in the 1"
(Don't worry about this it saves your server because if your server crashes within 1 minute it'll be right up)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Actions Tab:
1. Click New
2. Action: Start a Program
3. Settings:

and Click OK.

Conditions Tab:
Get Rid of the Checks in "Power" section
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Settings Tab:
Everything should be already configured.
Just make sure below the last setting is correct.
If the task is already running, then the following rule applies:
Do not start a new instance
!! Note: Obviously if your server crashes and you are not anywhere near your computer(shopping, etc) your fully protected because in just 1 minute it will be restarted!
Finally Click OK at the very bottom.
Congrats Scheduled Task Created!
Hope this Helps to All!
