Windows 10: Scheduled task created with Schtasks.exe using an XML file does not run on boot

I asked this question on StackOverflow, I am posting it here as well since the audience is more dedicated to Windows 10. Reading the rules of the community I didn't find that would make this against the rules. Would you recommend posting it somewhere else instead? Thank you!

Create a Scheduled Task on the fly with User logged in or not set

Instead of creating the .xml code yourself you might want to use the Task Schedule Creator, schtasks.exe /create. It lets you set all the parameters you mention.

 

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 =)
