The Scheduler only detects expired tasks when it starts up. For example, if you have a job scheduled to run every Saturday, and the Scheduler is turned off on Friday and then restarted on Monday, the job scheduled for Saturday is now a job that is scheduled in the past. If exec_exp_task is set to Yes, your Saturday job will run when the Scheduler is restarted.
