Windows 10: Task Scheduler asks for username and password, doesn't work

In trying to create a UAC bypass with task scheduler, I came across a problem. Task Scheduler asks for a password.I searched many forums, and the solutions never worked, which led me to create a question myself. I am trying to run with the highest privileges, except there is no password. I tried with my Microsoft Outlook password, but that didn't work. I have admin, as well.

Task Scheduler asking for password ?

this is completely baffling.

Why should i be asked to provide a user name and password when I am already logged in as the administrator?

I tried to change certain properties of teh Macrium schedule in Task scheduler but it kept asking for login details. The properties said for it to run whether or not the user was logged in or not - screen shots below









Every time i try and change something in these screens I am asked for a username/password but apart from the fact that I think I should not be asked for these details. I cannot find the right combination that grants me access. I have tried my User account
email address and password and/or PIN but these dont work.

I have come across many articles on the internet about changing properties of tasks in Task scheduler but none of them have mentioned anything about being pressed for login details.

Very curious.

I even created a dummy task in task scheduler using my user name + password but when I tried to edit the properties I was asked for login details. Why?

Is this another peculiarity of windows 10??

 

Task scheduler not working anymore.

Hello,

System file corruption is one of the possible reasons why you are encountering issues with the Task Scheduler in Windows 10. To better assist you, we need the answers to the following questions:

• Have you tried setting a schedule to
  defragment your hard drive?
• Did you make any changes on your computer prior to this issue?

In the meantime, we suggest creating a new user account and see if you will still encounter the same issue with the Task Scheduler. To do this, simply follow the steps below;

• 
  Select the Start button, then select Settings > Accounts > Family & other people > Add
  someone else to this PC.
  
• 
  Type a user name, password, password hint, and then select Next.
  

We are looking forward to your response.

 

Windows doesn`t start. Authomatic repair doesn`t work.

Thanks again!!

I`m sorry I had not noticed that the text on the picture was in spanish. It says that windows has replaced some damaged clusters in "name" file and "directory". Then, at the end "an unspecified error occurred (75736e6a726e6c2e 4f6)".

I`ll do it and I`ll be updating this thread when I have the report.

I ran SeaTools. These are the results:




Does it mean my HDD is useless?
