Deleting SmartBat Scheduled Items, I can only delete one item at a time
 
#1

Hello, I've been using The Bat! for years but have never used SmartBat.

When I went into SmartBat I discovered thousands of entries; entries I did not purposely make. I want to delete them as most are ancient.

I can delete them one-by-one but that will take forever.

I cannot Shift+Left Click to select many rows at once.

Can anyone advise how to delete unwanted Scheduled Tasks quickly?

Thanks a lot in advance!

Shortly: Rename event.cfg to something like old_events.cfg

That will delete not only your smartbat entries, that will delete and calendar events.

Also, select Options -> Preferences... -> Other options -> SmartBat -> Automatically remove completed events after... to stop this from happening again.

EDIT: Perhaps you could select this, wait a while and/or restart TB, and see if they get deleted automatically because of this.

Hi George, thank you for your suggestion.

Before renaming event.cfg, I want to try changing the settings option Miloš suggested.

I used machine translation for the text you linked to, and it might have made mistakes.

Were you saying the Calendar isn’t usable in it's current form?

Is Calendar the same as Scheduler?

I surely don't want to misinterpret you.

Hi Miloš, thank you for your suggestion.

I go to Options -> Preferences... -> Other options -> SmartBat -> but can't see any SmartBat setting?

Am I looking in the wrong place?

Please see a screen shot of my settings page:

Garry, you need to expand, not just select "Other options" to see the SmartBat section.

Nope, but they are connected. Events from calendar shows inside SmartBat.

I tried this and unfortunately the entries didn't disappear.
