Windows 10: Task scheduler is asking me a password which i dont know.

How to create this task not to insert password.

:)

 

Task Scheduler asking for password ?

I wanted to change a property of a task in Task Scheduler but I was asked to input user name and password.





I only have one machine and I am the administrator so I don't understand. However i did try and use the email address and password for my User account but this failed . Also tried the PIN and this also failed

I suspect the reason for this is that the scheduler is set to SYSTEM as user account - dont know how to change this (alyhi this may not be possible???)

Help anyone?

 

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??
