Creating Scheduled Task fails on Windows 7/11 #2

Closed nefarius closed 5 months ago

nefarius commented 8 months ago

Need to figure out what it complains about when attempting to create a Scheduled Task on Windows 7:

Failed to (re-)create Scheduled Task, error: Error saving the Task, HRESULT: Die Aufgaben-XML enthält einen Wert, der entweder falsch formatiert ist oder sich außerhalb des Bereichs befindet.

Plus make tests on Windows 8/8.1 as well to see if there is a particular Windows Edition where it starts failing.

Got this today too testing on Windows 11, when run from MSI:

[2024-02-04 23:53:19.356] [vicius-updater] [critical] Failed to (re-)create Scheduled Task, error: Error saving the Task, HRESULT: The task XML contains a value which is incorrectly formatted or out of range.
