Scheduler

[twoteles]

I apologise in advance if this topic has been mentioned previously.
I have done a search on the issue I have but, so far, I can´t find anything.
My problem appears to be setting a scheduled task so that Spybot runs each night at 1930 hours. When I initially try to set it up it shows:
Run as: Home/my user name and I am asked for a password, then to confirm.
After I have typed in the scheduled start time, I receive error 0X80070005 Access is denied. You do not have permission to perform the requested operation. Yet, under Windows/Tasks is appears that the schedule is set at 1930 and it never starts.
Any help or guidance on this would be appreciated.

I was one of the people asking a question in that thread going back to January.

So I guess it is "as you were" and will have the scan manually.

Thanks anyway.

Oops,yes,you're right,I missed seeing you in there.
So,the password you're entering is the same password as the password for your account?And you have admin rights?
There's a scheduled tasks troubleshooting page at MS,if that helps any:

Being a person who does not give up easily, I decided to email Spybot for help and I received this today:

Hello,

The password you should enter, is the password of an administrator account on your computer.

If you enter the password, the scan should run as scheduled.
