Hi there,

Ive created a compliance item which checks for mp3 files on the client computers and deletes them.

Its working great, but on some machines, it reports as error and gives me the status:

0x87d00321 - Script time out

What is happening (why only on some machines, since they are all the same hardware and with very similar data/files content) and most important, how to increase this time limit?

on some machines, this could take up to 5 minutes, but I dont care. How to increase the time limit?

In case you really can't make your script more efficient, you can look at something like this: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/fei_xias_blog/archive/2013/10/21/system-center-2012-configmgr-using-vbs-to-extend-the-dcm-script-execution-timeout-value.aspx

hi Peter.

Its not about optimization: my script searches the entire HDD for mp3 files, so I could take longer than 60 seconds depending on the hardware and the computer usage on that moment.

can this setting be changed through regedit or manually? Im not used to VBscript and the script posted there is not working... 

i saved the script content as test.vbs (like on the example) and im running it by 

cscript test.vbs server04 KSB

(where server04 is my SCCM server and KSB is my site name)

and it always gives an error saying the sintax is not right and im missing arguments
