The application starts up the service program, but it will fail on startup by the task scheduler.
Of course, when I run that application manually, it will start normally.
Also, it started without problem from startup on windows7.
Please tell me how to solve this problem.

Hi Yoshi,

I'll create a new task step by step, and then create a desktop shortcut, to demonstrate what you need to do to allow an application you are running to open with Administrator privileges and avoid the User Account Control [UAC] prompt.
  • Press Windows key + S to give focus to your Search field
  • In the search field type Task Scheduler and press Enter key to open
  • On the right pane of the Task Scheduler window click on Create Task
  • Enter a name for your task then check the box next to Run with highest privileges
  • Next, using the drop arrow select the operating system this task will run on. For example: Windows 10

  • Next, select the Actions tab
  • Click the New button
  • Click the Action's drop arrow and select Start a program
  • Click inside the program script field then click the browse button and select the application you intend to start and click Open to accept the selection, then click OK on the Action tab

  • Next select the Settings tab
  • Make sure that Allow task to be run on command is checked!
  • At the bottom of Setting tab click the drop arrow and select Do not start a new instance
  • Click the Settings tab's OK button

  • You'll now be back at the main Task Scheduler window. In its left pane click Task Scheduler Library
  • Now in the middle pane left-click once on your new task
  • Go to your Desktop and right-click and select New > Shortcut
  • For the Type the location of the item field enter the following:
Code:
schtasks /run /tn "Command Prompt"

Note: Replace Command Prompt with name of your task

  • Click the next button then if you wish, type a name for your shortcut and finally click Finish
Done!
