I'll resurrect this thread to see if there are any other thoughts on why I might be getting this error when I try to create a scheduled update task. (Nothing in the thread so far seems to relate to my circumstances, but maybe I'm not understanding.) Here are the relevant lines in my trace.log:
[12/22/2019 11:21:41 AM] [ERROR] Failed to create a daily update task in Task Scheduler. Exit: 80004005
[12/22/2019 11:21:41 AM] [ INFO] Successfully queried the Task Scheduler for status. No task is scheduled to run.
OS: Windows 7 Ultimate, fully updated
program path: E:\Program Files (x86)\Video\epg123\epg123.exe
configuration: v 1.3.2.10
running as administrator (have also tried running normally and running the client version)
disabled AVG antivirus and Windows Firewall just to check
I have successfully set up epg123 so the listings show up in Windows Media Center. I just can't get new listings.
If I click the "Save & Execute" button, epg123 successfully creates/updates the epg123.mxf file in the output folder of the program path mentioned above. And trace.log reports all kinds of success. (No spoiler tags? Ok, I'll post the trace.log results at the very bottom in case they're relevant.)
Possibly related, when I start up Windows Media Center, the following logo flashes in the bottom right for a couple of seconds:
