    Task Scheduler not working


    Hi everyone,

    I'm having issues with the Task Scheduler since a time ago. A message saying "The remote computer was not found" when I try to open it.

    I've searched for this problem and tried to run the command line "DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth" but it stuck at 100%. Also tried to disable the non-Microsoft services in msconfig and reboot the computer, but no success.

    The main reason that I want the Task Scheduler back is to use the NVIDIA In-game Overlay, but I can make it run using other method, so I'll not restore my W10 at the moment.

    PS.: In the same update that the Task Scheduler stop working properly, the Search tab and the Windows Settings aren't "reading" any key I type.

    Sorry about my english.
