Default Scheduled Task does not start

Hi,

I've been trying to schedule a task but when the defined
time approaches, the function (shutdown.exe) does not
execute. I have tried to run it manually, by right
clicking the task and pressing 'run' and the function
works. I have entered a password for my user name as
requested by the schedule task dialog box.

Thanks in advance,

jon

Thanks for your fast response. I have performed that
knowledge item. I entered a user name password exited,
rebooted and then tried entering a new scheduled item.
Still no go.
