Windows desktop Scheduled list is empty while the same account shows tasks on chatgpt.com
What version of the Codex App are you using (From “About Codex” dialog)?
ChatGPT Desktop for Windows
- Powered by Codex & OWL
- Version:
26.707.72221
What subscription do you have?
ChatGPT Plus
What platform is your computer?
Windows 10 x64
What issue are you seeing?
A scheduled task created through ChatGPT is visible on chatgpt.com under the Tasks/Scheduled page, but the Windows desktop app's Scheduled page is empty for the same account.
Restarting the desktop app does not make the task appear.
The task itself exists server-side and is visible/editable on the web, so this appears to be a desktop list synchronization or rendering issue rather than a task-creation failure.
What steps can reproduce the bug?
- Sign in to the same ChatGPT account on the Windows desktop app and on
chatgpt.com. - Create a scheduled task through ChatGPT (for example, a daily condition-watch task).
- Open the Tasks/Scheduled page on
chatgpt.comand confirm that the task is listed. - Open Scheduled in the Windows desktop app.
- Observe that the list is empty.
- Fully restart the Windows desktop app.
- Open Scheduled again; the task is still missing.
What is the expected behavior?
The Windows desktop app should display the same server-side scheduled tasks that are visible on chatgpt.com for the same account.
What is the actual behavior?
The web app shows the scheduled task, while the Windows desktop app's Scheduled page remains empty.
Additional information
- The desktop app has a visible Scheduled entry, so the feature is present in the UI.
- This is not the existing Windows automation issue where a scheduled run creates an empty thread or fails to dispatch a prompt; in this case, the problem is that an existing server-side task is absent from the desktop task list.
- Restarting the application did not resolve the issue.
