Task whose user account is a group

[Verónica Melero]

Hello, 

I need to create a task whose user account is a group, specifically that is the group of Users, and that is executed only when the user has logged in. But when I indicate the group, when I register the task, the access denied message appears. Thanks in advance!

The code that I have implemented is the following :

using (TaskService ts = new TaskService()) { // Create a new task definition and assign properties TaskDefinition td = ts.NewTask(); td.RegistrationInfo.Description = "Control horas Grupo Fes"; td.RegistrationInfo.Author = Environment.UserName; td.Principal.GroupId = "BUILTIN\\Usuarios"; td.Principal.Id = "Author"; td.Settings.AllowDemandStart = true; td.Settings.AllowHardTerminate = false; td.Settings.Compatibility = TaskCompatibility.V2_3; td.Settings.DisallowStartIfOnBatteries = false; td.Settings.DisallowStartOnRemoteAppSession = false; td.Settings.MultipleInstances = TaskInstancesPolicy.IgnoreNew; td.Settings.RestartCount = 3; td.Settings.RestartInterval = TimeSpan.FromMinutes(2); td.Settings.RunOnlyIfIdle = false; td.Settings.ExecutionTimeLimit = TimeSpan.FromDays(0); td.Settings.RunOnlyIfNetworkAvailable = false; td.Settings.StartWhenAvailable = true; td.Settings.StopIfGoingOnBatteries = false; td.Settings.UseUnifiedSchedulingEngine = false; td.Settings.Volatile = false; td.Settings.WakeToRun = false; td.Settings.Hidden = true; td.Settings.IdleSettings.RestartOnIdle = false; td.Settings.IdleSettings.StopOnIdleEnd = true; td.Settings.IdleSettings.WaitTimeout = TimeSpan.FromSeconds(0); DailyTrigger _triggerDaily = new DailyTrigger(); _triggerDaily.Enabled = true; _triggerDaily.Repetition.Interval = TimeSpan.FromMinutes(2); _triggerDaily.Repetition.Duration = TimeSpan.FromDays(0); td.Triggers.Add(_triggerDaily); // Create an action that will launch ControlHorasGFes.exe whenever the trigger fires td.Actions.Add(new ExecAction("C:\\Temp\\GFes\\ControlHorasGFes.exe")); const string taskName = "Launch Task GFes"; // Register the task in the root folder ts.RootFolder.RegisterTaskDefinition(taskName, td); ts.FindTask(taskName).Run(); }

Instead of setting Principal.Id, set Principal.GroupId to your group name.
