You are correct, using update in Scheduled Tasks. &nbsp;Will changing the time apply the change?<br />

Changing the time and applying it to the domain?

GPO - reboot computers<br />
<br />
What did I do wrong?<br />
<br />
I wanted all computers to reboot at 5:05 on Friday, a particular week.<br />
<br />
I created a GPO for a reboot and applied it to the domain, reboot happened as planned. &nbsp;I then removed the Policy from the domain, it still resides in Group Policy Objects.<br />
<br />
Here is what I did not expect.... &nbsp;Next Friday at 5:05, all computers reboot again. &nbsp;Do I need a GPO to cancel the previous scheduled reboot? &nbsp;I changed the time of the reboot in the GPO, will that do anything?
