Cause
The OAEXEC.exe task was stuck. OAExec.exe is the output executor task that executes output actions.
Resolution

Additional Information
How to check if OAExec.exe is stuck or hangs:
- open task manager (accessible in most windows via CTRL+ALT+Delete or right click on windows taskbar)
- In Processes tab check show processes from all users
- look for the OAExec.exe in the Processes tab
- if there is OAExec.exe in Processes tab then scheduled task is running (Task can be running for several minutes or even few hours depending on how much data task should process)
- Task is stuck if CPU is 00 and memory is not changing in line with OAExec.exe in Processes tab
- If task is stuck select it and click End Process to allow scheduler to run another task
How to check if scheduler is running as an application or as a service:
- open task manager (accessible in most windows via CTRL+ALT+Delete or right click on windows taskbar)
- In Processes tab check show processes from all users
- In Processes tab try to locate SchedulerService.exe to verify that scheduler is running as service
- In Processes tab try to locate SchedulerApplication.exe to verify that scheduler is running as application
- To verify that scheduler is not running there should not be SchedulerService.exe nor SchedulerApplication.exe nor OAExec.exe in Processes tab
