User

Password

If your user account has a password make sure that you enter it by pressing the Set password button. We do not save your password but it is needed in order to set up the scheduled task in the Windows Task Scheduler. If your user account does not have a password you must select the Allow blank passwords when scheduling option from Tools->Options->Preferences. Also, make sure that you enter the correct password - if the password is wrong the scheduled task will not run.
