Title: Scheduler not working
Post by: murphyw on August 07, 2019, 07:08:08 AM
Hi all,

I was hoping someone could help me with this one.  To follow security best practices I've removed my user account from the Administrators group on my PC.  Unfortunately, it would appear that this has caused an issue with PatchMyPC scheduler as it's not working now, doesn't even run.  I was wondering if this is normal and I need to setup my own TaskSchedule to get this working properly?

I can run it ok "on demand" as the Administrator.

Thanks in advance.

Can you provide some more details? Is it the run now operation that doesn't work?
