Hello,
I have a few questions for you.
1- Which OS are you using?
2- If Windows, which one? Also, do you know how to review Windows Scheduler? This is a place you should check to see if the task is being scheduled and what the status of the task is.
4- Can you turn debugging on and run the tasks through the point of failure. You do this by turning "debugging" on within the preferences. After you run Fixity through the point of failure you can close Fixity and navigate to the directory within the Fixity parent directory called "debug". Inside of that directory you should find the log file to send to us.
Thanks
Thank you for your response.
Below are the answers to your questions.
I have sent you windows scheduler screenshot in this email. Do I need to email the log file as well?
Thanks.

If using MAC then go to this path ~/Library/LaunchAgents/ (cd ~/Library/LaunchAgents/) and see if there is a file along the lines of “Com.fixity.GivenName.demon.plist”. If this exists it means the task is created and scheduled.

Hello,
I had a similar problem using Windows 10, after moving from Windows 7. The status of the scheduler job was running, but it never finished. I was able to edit the Scheduled Task to work by changing the Action to run Wscript.exe with the fixity script as the Argument, but this means it can't be edited in the Fixity interface by the Archivist.
Thank you, Audrey
Cheers to @atmickle 🎆 🍾 😀 !!!!
That finally got Fixity working for us on a scheduled task running Server 2016, we had the same issue on Server 2012 R2..
Thanks! Rick
Thanks for the info. We will look into this on our side to see if there is anything we can do to mitigate the issue.
Thanks!

The latest windows download has addressed this issue.
Hello,
I tried to schedule an automatic fixity check for my files. I read all your documentation and followed all the steps that you mentioned. However, I am having problem setting up an automatic fixity checks for my files and folders.
Thanks
