Cannot get program GUI to appear when run elevated by Task Scheduler - is that expected?
Run task scheduler task on demand from limited user account in windows 7AutoHotkey cannot launch ClickOnce apps when launched at startup using Task SchedulerWindows task scheduler won't run file on non-system driveTask Scheduler is not executing the programTask Scheduler program writes to literal folder named %LOCALAPPDATA%batch file runs fine manually, but line that launches exe fails when batch run in task schedulerProgram run with Task Scheduler doesn't work properly (create file)Scheduled Task batch script doesn't appear to run as adminWindows Task Scheduler can't write to folder even when run as AdminWhy doesn't Outlook properly open when scheduled to start using Task Scheduler?
For troubleshooting purposes I'm trying to get Task Scheduler to run Notepad++, "with highest privileges", using a user account that has Admin privileges ("run whether user is logged in or not"). It is triggered only when a specific user logs in. Here's the catch: this "specific user" is a member of the Guest group.
When I login as that user Notepad++ does not appear.
The Autoit program I actually want to run in this manner has a GUI. It does several things but among them it runs Nirsoft's USBdeview, which disables the mouse. (so my program must be run elevated)
As with when I try running Notepad++ my program's GUI never appears, BUT the mouse ends up being disabled. So I know at least part of my program has been executed. Also, when I log out and back in using the admin account I can see my program still running in Task Manager.
Is it not possible to have task scheduler run a program in a guest account, elevated by an admin user's credentials, and have that program fully execute, GUI and all?
