Vintage code

[TimoVJL]

TWinAT from 2005 and now compiled with Pelles c v13.
Sadly texts in Finnish language, as was created for company's IT persons.
Twenty years ago created and used until 2021 factory closed.

NetScheduleJobEnum function (lmat.h)

[NetScheduleJobEnum is no longer available for use as of Windows 8. Instead, use the Task Scheduler 2.0 Interfaces.

Not too sad though; can't let language be a a showstopper for a 'classic'

Here is the program translated to English for the C part and the .rc part.
Original Finnish version is still there, just 'excluded'.  To get that version
just 'exclude' the _EN versions and include the original as Timo adjusted for
Pelles C V13, then build again.

Thanks, here are the error messages while trying to run the application on Windows 11 2024 H2 :

Code Select Expand

Conflicting i/o operation is running.
Error code : 50

Saw that too - here is what I found:

AI Overview
Error Code 50, "Conflicting I/O operation is running," usually means another process is using a disk/device, often seen with external drives on Mac (file system issues, sleep settings) or Windows (driver/network stack problems), or within apps like Steam (download conflicts)
. Solutions involve restarting the PC, running as administrator, checking/updating drivers, disabling antivirus, resetting network settings, or addressing specific file system/permission issues on Mac

For Windows Users (Event ID 50)

    Hardware Failure: Check system logs for underlying hardware issues (especially disk/network).
    Network/Driver Issues: Roll back network drivers or run network reset commands.
    Filter Drivers: Other software (antivirus, backup tools) can interfere; perform a clean boot (msconfig) to find the culprit.
----
Seems more likely that Windows has changed something from the 'good ole days' that now creates the error -

I did try many 'compatibility' modes in Win 11 24H2 to no avail.  Also tried as Admin - no improvement
Did not try disabling Antivirus yet though....

The request is not supported.
