Stuck "Cancelled" status on scheduled task after accidentally triggering it

[Drake97]

Hi guys,
So I have this scheduled task that's been showing as Canceled for over a year, and I just now noticed it:



Basically, I must have accidentally clicked the run button on the "Migrate Trickplay Image Location" task like a year ago, never noticed it got canceled, and now that I finally saw it, I can't unsee it. It's been sitting there in blue this whole time, and it's giving me OCD lol.

I've tried restarting Jellyfin, restarting the whole server, even dug around in jellyfin.db and /var/lib/jellyfin looking for where task state is stored, and nothing shows up. 

Couldn't find any JSON or tables in the DB that hold scheduled task history.
I know it does absolutely nothing, and the task itself is irrelevant at this point, but does anyone know how to reset a task's last-run status? Just want it gone.

Running Jellyfin on Ubuntu.

Thanks in advance!

Look in /var/lib/jellyfin/data/ScheduledTasks.

There are a bunch of .js files in there. Search for the job name and edit the file.

Code:

chris@rat-trap:/opt/docker/jellyfin-data/config/data/ScheduledTasks$ grep -i cancel *
26649fe0-aad5-7557-2453-51f220da916c.js:{"StartTimeUtc":"2026-06-16T13:36:48.200123Z","EndTimeUtc":"2026-06-16T13:44:04.0325627Z","Status":"Cancelled","Name":"Download missing lyrics","Key":"DownloadLyrics","Id":"26649fe0aad57557245351f220da916c"}

I'm not sure if deleting the file is ok. Regardless, BACKUP this directory before messing around with it.

My man!
I made a backup and edited the file; I changed it to “Idle” instead of “Cancelled,” and now it looks perfect.
Thanks!
