You will not receive this error if the “Run only when user is logged on” Security option on the General tab is selected (we do not store passwords in this scenario). Policy is enabled and applied, Credential Manager cannot store the credentials locally, thus this error message appears. The new version of Task Scheduler (Windows Vista onwards) uses Windows Credential Manager to store the credentials of the account that is specified to perform a task. To resolve this issue, simply Set this policy to Disabled: Network access: Do not allow storage of passwords and credentials for network authentication SECPOL.MSC | Security Settings | Local Policies | Security Options This error came up whether I was logged on as a Local Administrator, Domain Administrator, or any other user that had rights to log on locally.Īfter extensive research, I found that the above error will only occur if the following Security Policy is enabled and you select the “Run whether user is logged on or not” Security option on the General tab, when creating a new task: Error message: The following error was reported: A specified logon session does not exist. When I attempted to create a scheduled task, the following error appeared:Īn error has occurred for the task.

This particular issue dealt with the creation of a task using Task Scheduler on a Windows 2008 R2 Server (can occur on Windows 7 as well). Doesnt this imply that the checkbox only hides the task. You make a task hidden when you click the Hidden check box on the General tab of the Task Properties or Create Task dialog box.
You can view hidden tasks when Show Hidden Tasks is selected in the View menu. I am blogging today about an issue I recently worked. By default, hidden tasks are not shown in the Task Scheduler user interface. Good morning AskPerf! Kapil Patry here from the Microsoft Platforms Support Team.
