Hello Sagar S., It seems like you are facing an issue with opening a task using Windows Task Scheduler with admin privileges. This problem can occur due to various reasons. Here are some steps you can take to troubleshoot and potentially resolve this issue: 1. Check User Account Control Settings: - Ensure that the User Account Control (UAC) settings are not preventing the task from running with administrative privileges. You can adjust the UAC settings in the Control Panel. 2. Verify Task Scheduler Configuration: - Double-check that the task is configured correctly in Task Scheduler. - Make sure the action of the task has the proper settings to run with the highest privileges. 3. Test Task Execution: - Try running the task manually with administrative privileges to see if it works outside of the Task Scheduler. - This can help determine if the issue lies with the task itself or the Task Scheduler settings. 4. Check Task Account Permissions: - Ensure that the account under which the task is set to run has the necessary permissions to execute the task. - If the task requires admin privileges, make sure the account has sufficient rights. 5. Review Task Scheduler Logs: - Check the Task Scheduler logs for any error messages or clues about why the task is not running with admin privileges. - The logs might provide more details on what is causing the issue. 6. Permissions on Task Files: - Check the permissions on the files or programs that the task is trying to run. Ensure that the account running the task has the required permissions to access these files. 7. Update or Re-create the Task: - If none of the above steps work, you might consider updating the task settings or recreating the task in Task Scheduler. Since you are using Windows 7, it's crucial to ensure that all the system updates are installed to address any known issues related to task scheduling. Feel free to try these suggestions and let me know if you encounter any specific errors or if you need further assistance.
