If I create a task and have it run as a specific local admin account, that account does not appear in Credential Manager under Windows Credentials.

To add some additional information, it would appear that scheduled tasks are stored at the following location in the registry: HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Schedule Changing the credentials (username and password) used to run a particular task results in changes to the...

I am trying to determine where Windows 10 stores the credentials for scheduled tasks and how those credentials are protected. I would have thought that they were managed in Credential Manager but they are not. Because they are needed to execute the task, I am assuming that they are not hashed...

Glad to hear it! My recommendation was going to be to create a local administrator service account and then try creating a Scheduled Task which runs "At System Startup" using those credentials. If SYSTEM level was required, then use SysInternal's PSEXEC in conjunction with the scheduled task.

There's a difference between local administrator and SYSTEM. SYSTEM is of higher privilege than local administrator. Which one are you looking for?

A few thoughts: Have you flushed the browser cache and cookies? Have you had her try OWA from a different computer and does it work okay there? If so, have you tried creating a new profile on her computer to see if that works? I, personally, don't put a lot of stock in Microsoft's Malicious...

Political Concern: Keep in mind that, if you get caught, you could see yourself in a lot more trouble than if you had just told someone that you forgot the file. Depending upon the VPN type and configuration--if you are split tunneling, you'll be opening a pipe to your company's internal...

Aren't ports 139 and 445 typically used by Windows for file sharing? Are you sure that DELL1 isn't just attempting to access file resources on the file server? Have you tried running a packet sniffer, like WireShark, on DELL1 in an attempt to determine what data it's sending?

Excellent! Thanks for the follow up. You've peaked my interest. One of my gripes with Juniper is that you cannot modify user profiles administratively (unless that has changed in recent releases). For example, if a user attempts to setup an RDP session and messes it up, the only way to fix...

Thanks unclerico! My experience with the Juniper IVE is that it is a very flexible and robust product. It also provides detailed audit logs on user activity, which is a major plus. I have a need to upgrade Juniper hardware and, before I recommend to management spending the money to do so, I...

I posted a similar question in another forum but did not get any bites (at least not yet). I'm hoping I'll have better luck here... I'm researching SSL VPN products... I have experience with Juniper's IVE products but am looking for comments from system administrators of other solutions. I...

When you create a Scheduled Task, you specify the credentials to use for processing the executable. Because the task runs within the context of that user, if the supplied user ID does not have administrative privileges, the task will not run as an admin. >> We do have an update task but...

In the past, when I've needed an application (typically an installation) to run frequently as a local administrator, I've set it up as a Scheduled Task that runs "At System Startup" or "At Logon" (although you can customize the frequency of the task to meet your needs). When scheduling the...

How about something like this?... @echo off dir /b *.pdf|find /i "4.pdf">%temp%\~PDFLst1.tmp for /f "tokens=1 delims=*" %%a in (%temp%\~PDFLst1.tmp) do call :SubRoutine "%%a" if exist %temp%\~PDFLst1.tmp del %temp%\~PDFLst1.tmp goto end :SubRoutine set SrcFileName=%~1 set...

...know I'm stepping in a little late in the game, but... You could try something like this, based upon the logs: @echo off for /f "tokens=1 delims=*" %%a in ('type "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\McAfee\Common Framework\DB\PrdMgr_%COMPUTERNAME%.log"^|find /i...

The "Run" portion of the registry exists in HKCU, as well as HKLM. I recommend that you export that portion of the registry first... That way, you can re-import it later if you remove the wrong key.

I've never had a problem piping to find. Try treating the errorlevel as a string variable (see below). With that change, the orginal code worked fine for me. Remember that errorlevel itself, when used with an if, "specifies a true condition if the last program run returned an exit code equal...

Words of Advice: Make sure that whatever solution you pick (logmein, gotomypc, etc) has been cleared with your IT security department. There may be remote access policies in place at your place of employment that would prevent you from using such a service. Or, at least, there may be audit...

If you're new to the registry, I'd recommend starting off by at least reading the Wikipedia article on the Windows Registry... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Registry NOTE: The registry is dangerous place!... If you are unfamiliar with it, proceed with extreme caution. Any wrong changes...

Two thoughts: 1.) Does the application place its settings in HKLM\Software or HKCU\Software? If HKCU, then the program may not work for any user other than the one who installed it (without transferring those settings to the other user). If HKLM, does the user need any additional...
