You can use local group policy to enable this feature type. To enable click
Start> Run> type GPEDIT.msc and hit Enter. At the
Local Group Policy Editor navigate to Local Computer Policy> Computer Configuration> Administrative Templates> Windows Components> Task Scheduler.
Inside the Task Scheduler is a series of different options that would allow users access to perform certain functions. It sounds like you may want to use Hide Property Pages - which will not allow a user to change the properties of the task. _JoeG

Hi, thank you so much for the suggestion, but it's only working on 'Windows Server 2003, Windows XP, and Windows 2000 operating systems only'. I would like to configure in Win7. :)

Hi,
Please try to modify the following registry for a test.
1. Disable Task Scheduler service first.
2. Navigate to [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Schedule], right click Schedule, and export to desktop as a backup.
3. In the right pane, double click Start key, change the value to 4.
4. After that, please restart the computer to take affect. Niki Han
