I have scheduled a task to run a SSIS job using the Task Scheduler (TS). It is configured to run as a User who belongs to the Admin group.

The security is "Run whether user is logged on or not" is checked "Dont store password" is checked "Run with highest preveilage" is unchecked

The scheduled task run ONLY when the user is logged in but when the user logs out the task doest seem to run. I figured "Run whether user is logged on or not" should run the task when the user isnt logged on.

What am I missing?
