Since I did a system restore or d\l some updates to Windows XP, my
scheduled task function did not run.

I think when I logon to computer with a password it might work now. I
just finished configuring computer after logging in.

I want to eliminate passwords at login (administrator), so "scheduled
task" can run as before without the need of any passwords anywhere..

Kindly advise.

If this is XP Pro, go to Admin Tools - Local Security Policy, open to
Local Policies - Security options, and in the right pane double click
the third line (limit local account use of blank passwords) and set to
Disabled.

If it is XP Home, go to

and in the General Tweaks, take the 'Run Scheduled tasks w/o password'
item
