Error Scheduling Tasks

[Guest HankL]

I received the following error when I attmepted to schedule a task in Win XP

with SP2.

 

while setting task information

 

0X80070005 acess is denied.

 

I research Microsoft and came up with the following:

 

In Run as: in the Schedule Task in the Task windows the computer name was

put in automically and I put in a password.

I never set a password under the Adminsitrators name because I did not want

to do that each time I boot up the computer.

I guess I am a little confused using the passwords.

Where can I find my password or where can I set one up, so I can use the

Schedule Tasks without continually running into this problem.

 

Thank you in advance for your assistance

 

Hank L

SYMPTOMS

When you try to complete a task under another user account, you may

receive an error message similar to the following:

An error occurred while attempting to set task account information.

When you click the Details button, you receive the following error

message details:

0x80070005 Access is denied. You do not have permission to perform the

requested operation.

Back to the top

 

CAUSE

This behavior occurs because, for security reasons, only members of

the administrator group or users with administrative rights can schedule a

task to run under another user's account.

WORKAROUND

To work around this behavior, contact your network administrator to

schedule a task for you, or log on as a user who has administrative

credentials to schedule a task

You can find your password in Control Panel, Users. Actually you can't

find it there - you can set one up or clear it, but it won't be displayed.

 

Yes, by default, the Task Scheduler will not run a number of tasks on the

local account if it does not have a password. This is for security

reasons.

 

If you don't want to enter the password every boot, use TweakUI to set

autologon.

Task Scheduler Fix

 

A scheduled task can be run without passwords:

 

For Pro: Start/Control Panel/Administrative Tools/Local Security

Policy/Local Policies/Security options. In the right hand pane (third down).

 

Accounts: Limit local account use of blank passwords to console logon only.

This is enabled by default, disable it.

 

For Home: Run Scheduled Task without a Password (Line 67)
