unable to create a new scheduled task

[Erick]

I'm unable to create a scheduled task on windows pro that will run a
batch job (cmd file)
When I try to save the backup task I receive the following error.

The new task has been created, but may not run because the account
information could not be set.
0x80070005 access denied

The user I am logged in under is called DailyBackup, here are some
more properties which the user and pc have;
DailyBackup HAS a password
DailyBackup IS a member of the administrators group
Accounts: Limit local account use of blank passwords IS disabled
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHIN\SYSTE\ControlSet001\lsa\limitblankpassworduse IS set
to 0
Dailybackup HAS been added to Security settings\local policies\users
right assignmet\log on as batch job
Dailybackup HAS been added to Security settings\local policies\users
right assignmet\log on as batch job

I created the Dailybackup account specifically to run the backup daily
even when I am logged on. This enables me to not have to use a
password when I log onto the compute under my own credentials.

I know this error has been around for ages but still I can't get rid
of it. It starts after you ad SP2 to your computer.

I also believe there is a local account built in account that you can
run this under but I have never found it

Any help appreciated

Erick,

The 0x80070005 is an error trying to write to a specific key

Download RegMon
(http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sysinternals/utilities/regmon.mspx), filter it
for write errors & get it logging just before you save the task. You will then
have some indication of which key it failed to write to as you have a restricted
account.

Please post back

Google is your friend. I googled for
"The new task has been created, but may not run because the account
information could not be set"
