WS 2012 R2 Task Scheduler Cannot Run Task

stevenTPG · Apr 25, 2024

Hello,

Whether a task is imported or created from scratch, the task generates this error:

I have tried deleting the task, running all updates, dism and sfc scans. The user running the task has privileges to log on as batch job.

Any ideas as to why this is happening or how it can be resolved?

All the best,
Steven Nerey

Regedit, then HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Schedule\TaskCache\ Is what's missing there?

Hey Corday,

That Key only has Default value. The Sub-keys ...\TaskCache\Tasks and ...\TaskCache\Tree contain the problem task with the proper Path. What else should I be checking here?

Interestingly, I first tried to launch regedit from Run, but could not. In fact, nothing will launch from Run. I opened regedit by searching the Start Menu.

All the best,
Steven

Oh! Btw, I have already tried exporting these keys and the task, deleting them, and recreating the task. This still resulted in the same error that the task no longer exists.

How to Fix "the selected task no longer exists" on Windows 10
Now look at Method #3.

EDIT: Backup Registry first.

Unfortunately, no dice.

Since you already ran an SFC scan there seems to be some kind of corruption in the program itself. Try a Clean Boot.

Hey Corday,

A clean boot made no difference.

Any other ideas?
