Windows 10: Scheduled Tasks - The task XML contains a value which is incorrectly formatted or out of range.

Hello,


I am receiving the following error when I modify a scheduled task and try to save it.

"The task XML contains a value which is incorrectly formatted or out of range."

This reliably occurs when I change the Runas user account for the schedule task to "NT AUTHORITY\INTERACTIVE".





When I click "Ok" I get the following:



If I change it to my username it works fine. I do not receive this error. I can use "NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM" account and that works fine as well, but it forces me to to "Run whether user is logged on or not" and I need this task to run under the currently logged in user account which is why I am trying to us "NT AUTHORITY\INTERACTIVE".

Thank you for any assistance you can offer.

:)

Task Scheduler Errors - SPP & other scheduled tasks

I have performed four installs of WIN 10 X64, one as an in place WIN 7 upgrade and three clean installs. (I have used two different media sets to eliminate the possibility of media corruption)

If the system Time Zone is set to (UTC+09:30) Adelaide for example, or, for that matter any time zone that has an offset with a fraction of an hour, and upon opening the Task Scheduler a number of error dialogues present, the same errors as Beaupeep has
described. The errors show the task name then: The task XML contains a value which is incorrectly formatted or out of range.

I have identified the errors to all relate to tasks that have the Synchronize Across Zones checkbox checked. Changing the system time zone to say (UTC+10:00) for example resolves the error.

However a change back to (UTC+09:30) in my case, local zone brings a return of the Task Scheduler errors.

Errors logged in the event viewer show Error 16385 "Failed to schedule Software Protection service for re-start at 2115-07-09T01:13:47Z. Error Code: 0x80041318".

• As a workaround I have set my time zone to (UTC+10:00) adjusted the time to local and turned off "Set time automatically".

I'd be interested to hear if anyone else can reproduce the Task Scheduler errors by changing their time zone and opening the Task scheduler?

 

Recurrent errors in Task Scheduler (Possible .Net Framework problem)

Hey guys,

I've recently upgraded to windows 10. I have enabled .net Framework 3.5 & 4.6 in Windows Features.

But every time I open Task Scheduler, a number of errors keep coming up saying "the task xml contains a value which is incorrectly formatted or out of range".

I had experienced these errors in previous versions of windows and by installing a .Net Framework, problem was solved. But I can't seem to find a way out of this one.

Cheers
