Scheduled Tasks; Passwords

B

Barry

The Scheduled Tasks feature in Windows XP Professional
now requires that you use a password to enable the task.
This is a real pain for single users that work on a
corporate network. We, like so many othere users, are
required to change passwords every month. This means re-
doing all the tasks each month. I can't think of a good
reason for the password requiremnt and would like to know
if anyone has found a way around it. Thank's

Don't believe you can work around it. What is your scheduled task doing?
