Thank you for your response. This is why I'm confused as I don't see
anything erroneous. The Task Scheduler service is started and automatic,
"log on as: Local System account and allow service to interact with desktop"
is enabled. Under BackUp properties, "Run only if logged on" is not checked.
Under Scheduled Tasks - Advanced - AT Service Account Configuration shows
System Account selected. Why then does it only run when the user is logged
on and the system is locked and it refuses to run if I log off? I'm confused
