Windows 10: Task Scheduler issues

Pushbullet used to launch at Windows StartUp, but has recently stopped doing so. One of the options I have looked at, is to delay its launching. I know I can use 3rd part programs like Winpatrol, but believe that Task Scheduler can also do it. Two difficulties : Task Scheduler wants me to set a time, whereas I simply want it triggered by an event Windows StartUp - irrespective of time. Secondly, when I try to set the task, I am told there is already such a task - BUT nowhere can I see that task listed. And if there is a hidden delay, maybe that explains why PushBullet has stopped launching

Issue with Task Scheduler

The task name sounds like a malware. Try running a full scan using Malwarebytes, and Junkware Removal Tool (www.malwarebytes.org). These tools will remove malicious
