Windows 10: Task Scheduler: Start a Program with Office

Does anyone know how to have Task Scheduler start a program to run with the launch of ANY Office application? I have a registry edit which will enable the black theme in Office 2016. It needs to be run each time any Office app opens. I can do this on an individual basis, or just click a batch file before I open anything Office, but it would be very nice to have Task Scheduler do this for me.

Windos 10 slow and lag badly and sometimes being stuck on 'Preparing an automatic repair'.

I had this problem too and was checking all the forums to find a solution. Then I found it by my own efforts:

Check the task scheduler. (press start and write task scheduler). You will see there some tasks which runs very often. The culprit in my computer was

Chrome update service and

Adobe update service

They were scheduled to check updates every day, every hour and very often. I changed their schedule to be once a week.

Depends on your computer, check whatever programs which are not necessary to update daily and change/disable them.

Also go to start up programs. My computer was running Chrome in start up. I disabled it. It uses unnecessary resources.

Also, OneDrive setting helps. Next to clock, find cloud symbol. Right click to it and click
settings. Under office tab, uncheck "use office to sync office files"

What is the registry edit for that you did? Also what is the reason to want to open another program when you open up a Office program? Task Scheduler is not used for that. You can do it through VBA in Office. Biggest issue with 2016 is that it is a Gui front end for Office 365 on the backside for the Cloud connection.
