"Cancelled" Tasks should still Run at their frequency without user interaction

"Cancelled" Tasks should still Run at their frequency without user interaction.  This ensures that all Updates, for example, are still Downloaded and Installed.

Never had a problem with this in any version.

Re: "Cancelled" Tasks should still Run at their frequency without user interaction

I have.  When "Pulse Updates" got Cancelled because I was running Norton LiveUpdate at the time, it did not Run again so, when I looked at the U.I., it read "2 Hours' Ago".  I had to Start the Task in order for it to keep Running normally.

this sounds more like a defect? do you see this consistently?

Yes, whenever, say, Pulse Updates were Cancelled, they would not run again without user interacton.  I reported this in the Forums months ago when I first spotted this issue, but no-one from symantec replied to me.
