If you do not specify the correct value in the “run in” field when configuring a scheduled task using the Task Scheduler on any version of the Windows operating system, you will receive a return error code 8007010B (0x8007010B) when you try to perform the work. This may be due to a typing error, but it is most likely due to quotation marks around the path of the folder.
