Error with Task Scheduler

[hgm77]

I have created a batch file to mirror my WD MyCloud Home drive (Z) to a local external drive (F). When I manually click on the batch file (on desktop), everything works well, and the mirroring takes place.

I followed the directions to create a task for this in Windows 10 Task Scheduler. For the action, I pointed to the FreeFileSync exe file, and for the Argument I pointed to the batch file. When I run the task, however, I get the following error code (in FreeFileSync):

"Cannot find the following folders: Z:\________" and under it
"Cannot read file attributes of Z:\." and also
"ERROR_PATH_NOT_FOUND: The system cannot find the path specificed. [GetFileAttributes]"

I can manually click on the batch file immediately after getting this error, and it works perfectly. This erro only happens when running the task.

What am I doing wrong?

It could be related to, Mapped network drives are tied to a specific user session and other user accounts do not have access. In fact they may have mapped the same drive letters to completely different network shares.

Thank you. Based on the article you provided, I removed the "run with highest privileges" check from the Task Scheduler checkbox, and it appears to work well now. I appreciate your help.
