For anyone that has need to close CMX from the Scheduler in Windows here's an updated copy of the utility from AutoHotkey.

It's got a few pop-up boxes that were just for debug & can be removed & recompiled, (Need Ahk installed to compile).

The EXE just runs, & the dialog boxes time out in a second or two.

CumulusShutdown.ahk Script below.

Complied Stadalone exe in the Attached zip.

Cheers

Phil.

Just noticed a string of errors at the end of the log in a test Start/Stop.

May not mean much as many have duplicated time stamps.

Full log file attached.

On the surface all seems to be running fine & no issues.

Cheers.

Partially reproduced the above by closing with Ctrl-C on the keyboard; but only one instance of the error message.

Maybe on a timing boundary.

You introduced a typo in those pasting operations, Phil, you've managed to change the spelling of "completed" in the second paste. It is correct in your source, Mark, don't worry, this is not another 'p' issue.

[mcrossley]

You can safely ignore errors after the Cumulus Shutdown message. They are usually like this one where a thread that hasn't terminates is trying to read from a port that Cumulus has already closed. The shutdown code could do with some loving to tidy up a bit better, but it's low priority.

It's actually incorrect in the source for Today.ini, but correct for the main ini.

Didn't think Mark needed to bother chasing a missing p at this point.
I can live with that.
