Guest · Dec 5, 2005

I want to use Task Scheduler but it ask for a password. Things is I don't
recall ever having a password. The user name is set for me but I dont recall
ever using a password. Can you help?

probably a dumb suggestion but have you tried leaving password filed blank?

Guest · Dec 6, 2005

Yes I have. Any suggestions on what to do next?

Are you using an account with admin privileges?

Apparently you cannot run TS with a blank password.
See:-
