The command to clear the entire bits cache is: BITSADMIN /RESET /ALLUSERS


> C:\Users\Administrator>bitsadmin /resume

> C:\Users\Administrator>bitsadmin /cancel

These two commands failed because the logged on account is not the owner of
the jobs.

tks Lawrence, but I think I also tried /reset /allusers.

There's a bit downloading at the moment (new files) but I see the two tasks
in question are still 'suspended'. When my new stuff completes I'll try the
command.

The 0x80070005 error is usually associated with access permissions, but I
wouldn't expect that kind of issue with a local Admin account.

it's OK, just took a bit of 'lateral thought'.

I created a scheduled task to run 'bitsreset.cmd' containing a single line
'bitsadmin /reset /allusers'. Telling the task to run as NTAuth\NETWORK
SERVICE didn't work however, the command claimed successful run but the jobs
remained, so I ran the task as 'SYSTEM', list clear, sched deleted.
