I tried to set up a scheduled task, and got
Error message: "0x80070005 Access is denied. You do not have permission to perform the requested operation
I searched, and found a MS article
http://update.microsoft.com/microsoftupdate/v6/showarticle.aspx?articleid=13&ln=en&IsMu=True
(though this may not have been the right one) and I had a look in Regedit and made sure the Permission boxes were ticked, and restarted. But this did not solve the problem.
Looking again at
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/816731
it said I could not do what I was trying to do because I do not have Admin rights, and should ask an admin user to do it for me.
I logged off user (John) and I have not set up any other users. IIRC I set up just myself and gave myself all rights. this is my personal home PC.
I looked at Control Panel\user accounts\change, and it shows only user "John" and it says I am computer administrator.
Could I have failed to do this, or done it wrong?
Is there a way I can either give myself Admin rights, or create an Admin user?
