Hi everyone, I hope someone on the planet can offer advice on repairing a Task Scheduler in Windows 7. When I click almost anything in Task Scheduler I get about 40 errors saying: Task (insert task name here): The task image is corrupt or has been tampered with.
Here are some examples of the task images that have been corrupted:
GoogleUpdateTaskMachineUA
Adobe Flash Player Updater
Uninstall Device Task
System Task
Analyze System
AutoBackup
Scheduled Defrag
I've done a lot of research on this error, but I keep getting conflicting information. The problem started when I tried to open Disk Defragmenter. It gave this message:
"Disk Defragmenter was scheduled using another program."
"Disk Defragmenter is currently using customized settings created by another program. Before you can modify the schedule, you must remove the customized settings." with two selections: "Remove Settings" and "Cancel".
Selecting either choice produces no results except to reproduce the same popup when attempting again to start the defragmenter
1. What other program would be using Defrag?
2. How can I end it?
3. How can I completely repair Task Scheduler?
This problem started after upgrading to Windows 10, and then reverting back to Windows 7. I really appreciate any help. Hopefully I will learn something from this experience. Thanks.
