Long story short, you need to provide write access to the target directory for the given user, WITHOUT relying on the user's membership of the Administrators group. The reason being, UAC is preventing the membership of the Administrators group having any affect, without prior elevation. This is by design. As long as your admin user, who runs the tasks can perform the same operation on a normal non-elevated command prompt, it should also work through task scheduler.
Most likely your admin user needs elevation to write a file in that directory. So the same is true via the task. Try writing a file in a directory where 'users' have write permissions, it will work without 'highest privileges'.

I found the answer buried on knowledge base article kb I had this problem when scheduling a batch file to execute on a Server R2 box. It was solved by adding 'Batch' to the permissions on cmd. To do so:. Go to the cmd. Right click and choose properties.
Then on the security tab click on Add. Chose the local computer in the tree and add username 'Batch'. Hit OK a few times. I would also like to point out that the KB article states the problem doesn't exist when being executed as a member of the admin group. This is incorrect, as the job failed when the user that owned the scheduled task in the run as box was a local administrator, a domain administrator, or a domain Id that was added to the local administrator group. Once the Batch was added to the security tab on cmd.

There are two ways to run the Task Manager in Windows 10 as an Administrator. Before you continue, you will need the admin username and password for the computer. The second way to open the Task Manager as an admin in Windows 10 is through Cortana. In most PCs, there should be no password associated with this account, so just click enter when the Command Prompt asks you for a password.
