Help with getting Guide to Update

[Toys7505]

Hi there -

Still new to this EPG123 thing. MY guide says it will be out of data in 3 days. In the window I have it setup to run the Scheduled task at 230 AM but it says that it hasn't run since I installed EPG123 back on 1/1/20. What am I doing wrong? Gotta be something simple I am over looking?!?!?
Appreciate any help....
Thanks,
Toys

So the task is created but has never run? The status still says "Ready. The task has not yet run. Exit: 0x00000001"?

Correct..... how do I get it to automatically run? Also, is there there a way to manually force an update?

Thanks,
Toys

For a manual update, open EPG123 and click the [Save & Execute] button.

When that is done, open Task Scheduler, select the task "epg123_update", and click the 'Run' button on the right. Wait a couple seconds and then click the 'Refresh' button on the right a couple times and take a look at the epg123_update task status. If it says 'Running', then the task is fine... there is something wrong with your Task Scheduler.

Ok, I have run the manual update, got guide info once again.....

I then followed your instructions for the Task Scheduler......when I ran it it displays "The system cannot find the path specified, (0x80070003)

Also, when I double click the epg123 desktop icon, I get a Configuration Warning....."Theblocation of this program file is not the same location configured in the Scheduled Task". I think this might be my issue but how do I fix it?

Thanks,
Toys

Delete your current task and create a new one. You at some point created a task while epg123.exe was located at c:\epg123\epg123.exe, but later installed in the default location? The task doesn't know you did that.

Yup, that worked, just did a test and task said it ran successfully!! Appreciate the help here, hats off to you sir!

Thanks again,
