Bat file will not run in Windows Schedule Tasks

[Doo4fun]

Batch file runs at cmd.exe but exits with 0x1 when attempting to run in
Schdueled tasks.
My intent is to delete all files with the .bak extention in Z:\ (this
is a network share that is mapped on the local server) then copy the
most recent .bak file to that directory

In Schedule tasks the Run = c:\WINDOWS\System32\cmd.exe /c
D:\Copy2Share\FileCopy.bat

@ECHO OFF
rem This script Deletes all *.bak files
rem then Copies most recent .bak file to directory

set localdir=O:\SQL-Backup\
set destdir=Z:\

del /s "%destdir%*.bak"

for /f "delims=" %%a in ('dir "%localdir%*.bak" /b /od') do set
"file=%%a"
copy "%localdir%%file%" "%destdir%" >nul

Your assistance is appreciated.

Don't use fixed share drive letters in scheduled tasks - it won't
work properly. Use UNC coding instead.
