Task Scheduler Run is Grayed Out for Standard User

[calandrelli]

i have a XP Pro machine that I want users to be able to run scheduled tasks on. The admin account can add, run and delete the tasks and the standard users could create tasks in the past. The standard user tasks run as scheduled but the users can no longer modify them or run them by selecting run in the task scheduler menu. the options are grayed out. Any idea why thi would be. I assume it was a registry change since all group policies are set to "not configued".

A possible Workaround, from this semi-related article, is to try and drag the task from the Scheduled Tasks folder to another folder, that the user has full access permissions to.
