Windows 10: Can't Use Domain Account to Run Task Scheduler After Recent Update

Hi,


After recent windows 10 update I noticed that all the task scheduler jobs using network address is hanging in the computer unless I login. I found that all the jobs in task scheduler were changed to use local account to run(used to be domain account), and I tried to change to domain account. I can see the domain account in job's Properties, but when I click okay it auto change to local account again. I tried to export the job and change the id in .xml file, it doesn't work either...


Can anyone help? Thanks!

:)

Task schedulers running account will not be changed in Windows 10

Hi

Since a couple of weeks back some of my scheduled tasks have been running with the wrong account.

The tasks are initially configured to be running under my domain account <company>\peter.

But when i look at the task the user is just peter, which actually is a local admin account on the computer.

If I try to change the account on the task, I get the dialog in which to write your password

I also tested to create a new task to be run with my domain account, but this task also is changed to be run with the local account.

I have the latest updates of Windows 10 (Version 1703) installed.

Why is this happening? These are not the same accounts so why are they mixed up?

Regards

Peter

Meanwhile, I suggest that you try starting the Task Scheduler through command line. To do so, please follow these steps:
