I have WinXP installed in C:\WINDOWS\
with 2 accounts: Administrator
and user
. The second one is limited and used for main work, but I also know a password for Administrator.
I want to make an alarm clock via task scheduling, but I can't!
AT
doesn't work, saying access is denied under admin as well as under user.
Ok, I've found an article: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/259907/en-us, stating LocalSystem
account should have full access to root directory. No problem...
C:\>cacls \ /G LocalSystem:F
No mapping between account names and security IDs was done.
WHAT? Current rights:
C:\>cacls \
C:\ BUILTIN\Administrators:(OI)(CI)F
NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM:(OI)(CI)F
CREATOR OWNER:(OI)(CI)(IO)F
BUILTIN\Users:(OI)(CI)R
BUILTIN\Users:(CI)(special access:)
FILE_APPEND_DATA
BUILTIN\Users:(CI)(IO)(special access:)
FILE_WRITE_DATA
Everyone:R
Ok, I googled it more and found, there's schtasks
command (formatting)
C:\>schtasks /create
/sc DAILY
/tn alarmtest3
/tr "wmplayer c:\music\catgroove.mp3"
/st 01:50:00
It even creates task, but they just do not run.
C:\>schtasks

How could I schedule something?
