Re: Password not accepted in Task Scheduler

Hi,

You will have to password your administrator account for it to work.

You can then use one of these options to logon automatically.

1. Go to Start - Run and type: control userpasswords2 and press
enter.

2. On the Users tab, left click your user name then clear the Users
Must Enter A User Name And Password To Use This Computer check box and
then click OK.

3. In the Automatically Log On dialog box that appears, type the "user
name and password" for the account you want to be logged on each time
you start your computer.

Note: If you want to logon to one of the other users, hold down shift
as the system boots up.

Tip: Add Control UserPasswords2 to the Control Panel (Line 1)

Tweakui is another option. Install and go to Logon - Auto logon to set
it up.
