Hi.
I am trying to edit a scheduled task, that I created a few months ago. The task opens an FTP client every x mins and uploads a file to a remote server.
This has been running successfully for about a month - today I wanted to amend the task slightly to change the filename uploaded to the server, and no matter what I try, I can't save the task. It keeps asking for my credentials, which when entered are met with the response "Task Scheduler cannot apply your changes. The user account is unknown, the password is incorrect, or the user account does not have permission to modify the task."
I have edited the task before without issue, I am using the same account to edit as to create the task. And it is the administrator account for the machine.
It seems there is a permission issue at play here but I can't figure it out, and I can't think of anything significant that has changed between the last edit of the task, and today - aside from some Windows Updates. Any ideas on how to solve this issue?
