Hello,
I am desperately trying to schedule a task to run at Windows startup, nothing too complicated: launch a program (in this case VLC).
According to the Task Scheduler, the task is executing correctly (Status: "Running" and "The task is currently running. (0x41301)" in the "Last Run Result" field in the Task Scheduler) but the program is not opened/visible (not visible in the taskbar, nor in the Task Manager under the "Programs" or "Processes" tabs).
I have tried modifying almost all the configuration settings of the task, with no better result. The program does not appear. Same with Outlook, Word, Mozilla instead of VLC.
Any ideas? Thanks!
