Since you changed the Administrator password, you have to reset the password for your scheduled tasks to match the new Administrator password. If you open the properties of the task, you should see an option to set the password for the task.

Hope this helps!

I agree with synergy/dlo.

I might add, however, when you try to assimilate new passwords into older tasks, you'll have a collective problem. These cybernetic-type attempts don't communicate with the hive very effectively, although they might be able to adapt, thus becoming even stronger programs. Or, if you wanted to attempt another regeneration cycle, you could try to write a drone program for the task, but these new implants might resist. And, as we know, resistance is futile.

Try to get services as these to run under the local System account and not under a user account who has a normal logon. Otherwise you'll always need to change those passwords as well whenever you change tha password for that user.

Yes, you are correct. You need to reset the password on each scheduled task to get them running again. You may want to setup an account that only has set permissions that you can use for the scheduled tasks.
At times I have noticed that the tasks do not run but have not figured out the cause. Resetting the password resolves the issue.
