Post From: Trade Activity Log - not saving data to file

Yes, it appears it appears the "hidden" instance was likely loaded under a different Windows account when loaded by Windows Task Scheduler. The task had been created initially to run Sierra Chart upon computer startup in the morning. The issue of the TradeActivityLog.dat not saving began when the setting (in Task Scheduler): "run only when user is logged on", was changed to: "run whether user is logged on or not". Upon switching this setting back to "run only when user is logged on" the issue was resolved. Although this wasn't apparent that it was causing the issue until the investigation into why the "file in use" message was appearing. While the same Windows account was used in both cases, that setting seemed to make a difference into which environment SC was loaded into, and whether or not it was "running hidden". So perhaps the Task Scheduler loaded it under a different user account with the change in setting, as you are saying. Thanks again for the help. |
