  1. Windows 10 Task Scheduler is Broken


    Since running the last Windows Updates the Task Scheduler is no longer able to save changes to any existing or new Tasks.

    When I make any change to the existing tasks it asks for the User ID and Password to save changes but no matter what I put in or what user account I select it keeps giving me the same error:


    An error has occurred...The specified account name is not valid.


    Even though I pick the user name from the dropdown.

    I have tried just the user name or the user name with computer name and nothing works.

    The password is 100% correct.


    This used to work and now is not working. I cannot modify or add any new tasks.

    :)

  4. Windows 10 Task Scheduler is Broken

    Unable to run Task Scheduler

    Hello Varun,

    Let's determine the cause of the issue. To get started, I'd like to get the following information:

    • Is this your first time to encounter this issue? If so, did you make any changes to your computer's configuration prior to this?
    • Are you getting any error messages?
    • Can you also please confirm the current build of your Windows 10?

      (Type winver into the Cortana search box, then hit
      Enter
      .)

    Meanwhile, I suggest that you try starting the Task Scheduler through command line. To do so, please follow these steps:

    • Open Command Prompt (Admin).
    • Type this net start task scheduler and hit Enter.

    We're looking forward to your response.
