Task Scheduler - Launching .exe

[SkysLastChance]

So I am having problems launching my script using task scheduler. I will admit I am new to task scheduler.

I found a lot of topics on this same kind of thing, but most of them had to do with Send () and WinWaitActive() being the cause. 

I tested with a script just using:

Msgbox(0,"","")

It works fine if I have "Run only when user is logged on". If I try "Run whether user is logged on or not." It will not run. (tested while logged on also) It will not pop up the message box.

I am unsure of how to debug this problem I am assuming it has to do with some permissions as I am on a company computer. Not sure where to look for errors though. 

Any help is appreciated.

Hi @SkysLastChance.

I seems to remember applications started via task scheduler does not allow GUI to work, including your message box.

Just for testing, your script could create a text file on the desktop, just to verify this claim

[rsn]

If you choose to "Run whether user is logged on or not" it will automatically run hidden unless you configure for "Windows Server™ 2003, Windows® XP, or Windows® 2000"

Just for ideas, related with paths, not MsgBox:

Thank you for the help on this everyone. The truth is that all of these helped me out. Then I ran into more problems. My main problem ended up being that the task scheduler did not have access to the Folders/SQL tables that my script was trying to run. It is working as expected now.
