However, I would like the form to pop up a message box once the job is completed and I can't manage to get to the right result.Īt first I tried a While loop that checks every 10 seconds if the job is completed: If the menu doesn't open, set your execution policy first: Set-ExecutionPolicy -ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted You may notice that this program has the default title Powershell Script Menu, you can't change the button colors, etc. PowerShell -NoProfile -NonInteractive -Command reflection.assembly::loadwithpartialname ('') system. :) Now if only schtasks.exe was as easy to use as PowerShell.

I used Start-Job in order to keep the form responsive during the backup process (By responsive I mean you can move it around, minimize it and so on). You could paste this into a scheduled task or something if you want an annoying reminder to pop up on your screen. I've created a Windows form where you can click a button that starts a backup process (Using Start-Job) of about 15 minutes.
