I have a scheduled task running on Windows 7 and it returns 0x2 (according to this article, it means "access denied" and according to this article it means "an issue with the file") every time is runs.
The scheduled task runs a .BAT file. The task is set with highest privileges. The .BAT file runs successfully from the CMD.
most links in those articles are deprecated, any idea how to solve this issue?
Not sure what exactly type of batch file you are running. But if you use a shortcut of the batch file and use full paths, you can use the shortcut in the properties (via right click) run as admin. This might help. Another problem I recently ran into with a similar error, also running a batch, I went into the folder(directory of targeted files from batch) properties and increased authority to my logged-in user. – ejbytes – 2017-04-19T08:11:46.503

Yes, the batch file is in the correct directory, I can run it manually. Also it has the highest previlage, I am also the admin and it is using highest authority.
I noticed something, Once I am adding in a log using "Add Arguments" option (> failure.log), the result changes to 0x1 instead of 0x2. – artabaz – 2017-04-20T08:15:29.677

Can we trigger any email action when we receive 0X2 in task scheduler? – Aakash Maurya – 2018-09-17T11:30:48.287
