I've been noticing an issue with the Windows Task Scheduler. It seems like any scheduled task I set up runs only when a user logs in instead of at the specified times. Has anyone else experienced this? I'm curious if there's a fix.

I had the same problem with a task set for 8am every day. It only kicked in after I logged in. It might be related to the triggers being ignored. A recent update or a Group Policy could have reset the task conditions.
Was your scheduled task working fine before? You might want to test creating the same task locally. Also, double-check all the settings to ensure it's not set to run only when the user is logged on. Is this affecting multiple tasks or just this one?
Have you checked whether you've enabled the option to run the task whether or not the user is logged in? That could be causing it to default to running only at login.
