Powershell script run task scheduler will not start photoshop

Question

I have this command in a powershell script file. When I run the script from the powershell, it'll start photoshop and do some scripted things before photoshop quits it selves.

Start-Process "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC 2018\Photoshop.exe" -Wait

But when I run the powershell script with windows task scheduler, it doesnt start photoshop at all.

Powershell.exe -ExecutionPolicy Bypass "C:\path\scriptPS1"

The task is running as my own user.

Answer 1

When I checked off "Run whether user is logged on or not", it worked.

I managed to find this out when i created a single task in the task scheduler that only started Photoshop by it self. And when I turned on the "Run whether user is logged on or not", the task scheduler was unable to start photoshop.
