Password not Setting

[rueterd]

When I set up a backup task and set the scheduler under the General tap and check the "With Windows Scheduler" then check "Run whether the user is logged on or not", then enter the user name and password then save. When I go back in to check the status of backup scheduler, the check box has moved to "Run Only if the user is logged on".

I've tried this on 3 different jobs and they all have the same results.
Here is the system info from Bacup4all:

Your activation is valid, the program is functional.
You can register the software with us to see your license keys in your account.

Hi,

We don't have such problems here.
1. What version of Windows do you have?
2. Do you have a password set for your Windows user account on that computer?

It's probably not a good idea to post your license key and other personal info on a public forum, my friend. The Backup4All version is typically all you need to get started. Any other needed info will be requested by Adrian (as he did).

You may want to edit your post.

I have the exact same problem (latest version of Windows 10). I have tried every variation that I can think of, including trying to amend the Windows task scheduler itself, as administrator (which it would not allow me to do). Very frustrating.

Worked fine on my old computer (Windows 8.1) which was also set up with an administrator's account plus user accounts for day-to-day work.

Any suggestions , Backup4all?
