    Task Scheduler Will Not Start


    Hey everyone,

    Have an issue with task scheduler not stating which is causing issues with say Nvidia Geforce Experience not starting as it requires it to update.

    When I try to start it from services I get that error.

    When I try to launch the task scheduler I get this error.

    I have tried resetting it back to the default registry from the file on these forums, tried change from auto to manual via registry, tried changing the boot options to only launch windows default services, made sure the dependent services are all running, sfc /scannow found nothing either.

    Done a Malwarebytes scan and now running an AV scan with Avira.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    :)

    Task Scheduler service will not start.

    Try signing in using a new user account. We suggest that you create a new user account and check the issue of the status in the new user account. This would help us to analyze the issue to find the cause and resolution. If the new account works fine for
    you, add your Microsoft credentials to it and use it as your Microsoft account.

    We'll wait for the result.

    Task Scheduler service will not start.

    first, the computer does update regularly but its hard to say if this started directly after one

    second, the exact error message is "The Task Scheduler Service on Local Computer started and then stopped. Some services stop automatically if not in use by other services or programs"

    third, Running the Task Scheduler program doesn't seem to have any effect, and the first thing to come up when i do is a message saying "Unable to connect to remote computer"
