LiveCode’s shell function on windows is basically telling cmd.exe to run the command. I have run into permissions issues before on school networks that have policies that block the use of the command prompt. In that case moving to open process with a read from process loop worked around the policy. You might try that. It could be in the scheduled task environment there is something missing that cmd.exe needs.
