Default walign tool

Thanks Jeff,
I will just leave walign in the task folder as is. This winalign.exe program
is not in the system; is this a necessary maintaince program?
It is like Snowy River here. Lake effect snows.

Walign needs to be run once only. It does its job and goes away. It
shouldn't need to be in the task scheduler at all - perhaps it was

installed
there to force it to run one time, but after that you don't need it at

all.
There might be a case for winalign to be in task scheduler, in case you
install old software that needs aligning, but I wouldn't think it's worth
the trouble.

The program name on its own is probably enough for task scheduler, because

I
would expect the system to look in C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\ by default.

I'm in sunny Sydney, which is wet and muggy at the moment (but we do need
the rain).

Thanks Jeff,
I have been just letting it run in the Task Scheduler folder on its on
shedule. One other question though; the run path in the scheduler is
stated
[walign]. No other path. Is this correct or should it be
[C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\WALIGN.EXE].?.
p.s. Australia! hah! which part? I am in Ohio.
