I am trying to run a scheduled backup using XP PRO. When
the time for the backup come, I get an error in Scheduled
tasks that says, "The scheduled task did not run because
no user account passwork was entered". I have 2 accounts
on the system, both have admin settings and neither are
set up with a password. Can someone tell me how to get
around this? Thanks
 
Hi Tom,

I am having major problems getting my backup to run as
scheduled. But mine just doesn't respond or seem to see
the task at all (except it does change to the next
scheduled execution time....no log entry, no error,
nothing). Anyway, I have run into your problem when
setting up a scheduled defrag on my parents' machine. I
believe that scheduled tasks WILL NOT run on an account
that does not have a password (at least this is the info
I found in technet).

Hope this helps,

Andi
