SyncToy: windows scheduler requires password

Hi,

SyncToy runs fine for me in the foreground.

I followed the SyncToy help on using the Windows scheduler. I scheduled
SyncToy to run once a day at night.

However, when I checked to see whether my scheduled job had run, there was
an error message that said that SyncToy was not able to start because I did
not provide a password.

I was prompted to enter a password when I set up the scheduler but since I
do not use a password on my home system I left the password field blank.

On my home system I've given the default user (myself) admin privileges and
do not require a password.

Is there a way to schedule SyncToy with a blank password?

Thank you.
 
Then anyone in the world can log on to your computer. Dumb idea. Make an account with a password and use that account.
