Task Schedular error

[yrana2002]

I want to start a series of programs during happy hours so that i'm full with my sleep. I tried to use Task Schedular but after indicating a program such as Bitcomet, it shows:
Task may not run because account information hasn't been set.
Specific error:
0*80070005 : Access denied
Try using Taskpage browse button to locate the application.
What's the prob?
Also, can i use task schedular to bring comp from hibernation?

I think that is some problem with password. I think you must not have given a password it asks for, I think it asks for ur administrator password or something as such while setting up the task. I don't remember properly now cos I've moved away from windows for a while now.

Well, yes it does ask for a password, but why should it anyways? I mean, no one's gonna have a problem running a simple program (unless it is done by some real culprit)

Yeah but its a security practise. There must be a tweak around it. I dunno how maybe sum1 from the forum mite b able to help u there. Till then you can try with the admin password or if it accepts than any other password.

I just wanted to ask, if i can use schedullar to open programs, can it be used to close any of them?

[mehulved]

Yeah.
Don't remember the procedure properly. But, i think u gotta right click on it and select properties or advanced or something. In there u can see the options to end if not completed at so and so time. But, you can use it for programs which do not need to save its contents. BTW u got the program running properly?

Well, its like i enable/disable local area connection due to usage limits. I have a shortcut from the 'network connections' folder on the desktop. But when i ran it using schedular, it opned notepad showing some weird characters. How do i start my connection using the schedular?
