    Can't create a task


    As the title suggests, I can't create a task. It asks me for confirmation with a username and password but the username that comes up isn't on my computer. Further more when I try to put in my username, it says it's invalid. I can't find any thing on the internet about it so here I am.

    :)

    I have the same problem. The task viewer icon was there but is now gone. I have gone through the steps you listed but no viewer. Then I created a new profile and the task viewer is there. Now, how do I get the task viewer back in my taskbar in my
    original profile??

    OK, the next step in trouble-shooting is to examine your task. Please do this:

    1. Right-click the task, then export it to an .xml file.
    2. Open the .xml file with Notepad.exe.
    3. Copy its contents into your reply.

    Hi Terry,

    Are you facing any other issues with the start menu or the action center?

    I would suggest you to try these steps and check if that fixes the issue:

    • Open an Administrator CMD window. If you can’t find a way, use these steps:
    • Press CTRL+Shift+ESC to open Task Manager.
    • Click File > Run New Task
    • Make sure you have a check mark beside “Create this task with administrative privileges”
    • Type CMD
    • Type the following commands at the CMD prompt:

      dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth

      sfc /scannnow
    If the above steps didn't help, then try creating a new user profile and check if the same behavior is noticed. This will help us determine if this issue is confined to your user profile. Try these steps and let us know the results.
