Scheduled Task won't work after password change

[Guest Magnus.Moraberg@gmail.com]

Hi,

 

I have a Scheduled task that backs up my database. I runs once a day.

Once a month I am prompted to change my password and then the

Scheduled task stops working because it now has my old password...

 

Without having to explicitly edit the Scheduled Task. how can I avoid

this problem?

 

I am the admin on this computer and I am also experienced with .Net

and C#.

 

Thanks,

 

Barry.

Re: Scheduled Task won't work after password change

 

Hello Magnus.Moraberg@gmail.com,

 

On the admin account properties set the "Password never expires" option.

 

BTW, an account for this kind of tasks, shouldn't be the admin account. Create

a normal user account, which will get only the needed "Security options"

with a GPO.

 

Best regards
