title: Run a .bat file without user credentials in Windows? (or unchanging credentials)
body: <p>our company has a remote server in which we run the Task Scheduler to run .bat files.</p>
  
  <p>Seems like it asks for user credentials usually, so I put in my own user/ password for this remote server to run these .bat scripts.</p>
  
  <p>However, this seems like poor practice. Yesterday for the first time in 3 years, we had to change our Windows passwords. Lo and behold, the .bats that ran on the same old user/ pass silently failed (returned login error but that's only in the scheduler).</p>
  
  <p>Any way to get around this? Schedule fail alerts? Not require a user or somehow have a constant service account that doesn't have password change?</p>
