you would post related anything here, if it is abug, which I doubt, then the MS folks here would pass it up the ladder.

I know someone is going to "doubt". So here is how you repeat this:Bug about: SchTasks.exeEnv: Windows 7 Professional Simplified Chinese version x86 (running inside VPC 2007 on Windows Vista Ultimate SP2 English x64)To re-produce: open cmd.exe -> type schtasks (return) -> get error, error msg in Chinese, I don't know what is the English msg, since I can't make it error on English systems. By Bing Translator, the err msg read like Error: unable to load the resources listed.These will work without error: schtasks /? schtasks /Query /? schtasks /Change /TN "\Microsoft\Windows\Defrag\ScheduledDefrag" /ST 20:00These will not: schtasks schtasks /Query schtasks /Query /TN "\Microsoft\Windows\Defrag\ScheduledDefrag"Funny thing you can do, which really prove this should be a bug: go to Control Panel -> Regional -> Language -> for non-Unicode program, change language from Chinese to English, reboot, then you no longer got above errors.I also tested this on Vista Chinese version, it runs ok, without any error. This should be something new to Win 7.Apparently this is due to string handling code.Hope this could be fixed in SP1. Or someone jump out to prove this is my bug, not Win 7's. :)

To report a bug is serious business, serious able person would want to waste their personal time to do it.To Give Feedback means anyone can do that, e.g. rocket scientists, etc.Does this mean the Win7 team is too proud to let people have a proper way to report bug? BUG!? WHAT BUG?!

They look at all bug reports, but as you well know most "Bug Reports" are really not bugs in the OS but buggy systems.By posting to the forum you get peer support right away and in most cases the "Bug" is discovered to not be a bug at all and there would no reason to go on with reporting.I would suggest you post this the Chinese forum so you can have folks who are running the Chinese version reproduce the BUG..to be classed a bug it must be reproduced across a wide range of installs, have you reproduced the error on more than a single PC???And feedback is how you build a better product.No matter if the feedback is good or BAD (like bug reporting)

I reckon you got MSDN? You could grab an ISO and test it in 20 mins. You don't really need to understand Chinese to try this on a Chinese 7.Suggest me to post on Chinese forum is meaningless, over there less less traffic.I could see this is a bug from a programmer's point of view, BTW, i'm not IT guy, just forced to wear many hats
