0000003a - Installation involves creating a scheduled task on the computer. Windows 7

Hi I have just sucessfully deployed 5 Win 7 PC's remotely using SCC 4.0.

I now have one PC that is returning this message.

'0000003a - Installation involves creating a scheduled task on the computer. Access was denied when creating this task. The default admin share (called C$) may not be accessible or a required service may not be running.'

I have done as suggested in this link on the KB but no joy. Used several domain accuonts and even the domain admin accounts and that still does not work

Any ideas anyone?

C$ admin share is there and I am using the same domain admin account to deploy from SCC

Thanks

Andy

  • Unfortunnately, this is not "resolved".

    As I mentioned, a file (Sophos_InstTask.job) is indeed created in %SystemRoot%\Tasks on the Windows 7 client computer,  so yes, the domain admins have full control to this folder. However, just after the file is created, a warning is shown in the console with code 0000003a.

    Also, as I understand Windows 7 doesn't run .job files from %SystemRoot%\Tasks, but it runs xml files from system32\Tasks.

    Any more suggestions?

    Thanks
