The Windows Task Scheduler does not run programs as an administrator by default. This is true even if the user who is running the scheduled job has administrator rights.

On the Microsoft Task Scheduler General tab, select Run only when user is logged on to avoid the error. Alternatively, to work around this Windows requirement, run SAS Enterprise Guide as an Administrator before scheduling the project or process flow. For more information, see "How to Run an App as Administrator in Windows 10".
