Task Scheduler Batch file

Hi all,

Looking for some help.Im creating a batch file to run for different users to add a scheduled task. HOWEVER - the whole thing works great and has done for some time.But after i run the batch file on each machine (different users) i have to go into the security options and change the user the task runs in to the unique user of that machine. Is there a way to use the batch file to pull the account name of the machine (or computer name) and use that as the user the task runs in?


Thanks =)

 

Task Scheduler Email Issue

Not at all. I suggested in my previous note that you could schedule this AutoIt script:

1. Take a screenshot
2. Save it to a temporary file
3. Generate an E-Mail
4. Attach the screenshot
5. Send it to its recipient

Do you think that AutoIt is unable to execute each of these steps?
