Is there any chance the task works because the administrator has rights to
copy the file to the new location and the user doesn't? Does the script run
without errors when the user runs it manually? As far as I know, anyone can
run task scheduler, the permissions are dependent on what the script is
trying to do.
You might try enabling auditing and/or edit your script to log the results
somewhere, such as
xcopy thisfile thatlocation >> c:\logfile.txt
... where >> appends data to the end of the log file and > overwrites
the file completely.
How to enable auditing:
http://securityadmin.info/faq.htm#auditing
Or, if you prefer, you might sit there and run the free filemon and regmon
and maybe process explorer utilities from www.sysinternals.com while the
task attempts to run, to try to see what is happening. This might be easier
and better than enabling auditing for this purpose.
