Run Windows interactive scheduled task even if user not logged in

http://superuser.com/questions/616206/run-interactive-task-even-if-user-is-not-logged-on-windows?rq=1

Problem arises when a windows scheduled task needs to fire up a GUI – if there is no session logged in then it fails to run because has nowhere to display the GUI.

Caveat: I haven’t tried this solution myself yet, don’t know if there are any unpleasant side effects from it or not.
