Can't rename a copied Scheduled Task

Hello,

I created a scheduled task, which works fine.
I created a copy by ctrl-drag; it's default
name is "Copy of OriginalName". I tried to
rename it, but an error message tells me that
"Access is denied". I am using a nonadministrator
account.

I tried to solve the problem by changing the
permissions on the security tab of the properties
for that task. First, I tried erasing the
existing permissions. I was warned that only
the owner (me) can re-give permissions to the
task. Fine, I could do that. Unfortunately,
I can no longer open the properties panel for
the task after removing all permissions. I can't
even delete the task.

How can I reset the permissions to what they
were? And then, what kind of changes to those
permissions would allow me to rename the task?

Thanks.

Fred

Thanks, sk, that allowed me to rename and delete tasks.
However, the original copy of the task, from which I
removed all permissions, is still present and invisible.
