Automatic task start fails #117
Comments
You may want to create a local/service account on your machine and install Pi-hole under that account.
This shouldn't happen if Pi-hole is your only DNS server, the lookups should fail. |
Thank you. Another topic but what preferred DNS server should I use in IPv4 windows network properties? Some tutorials put 127.0.0.1 others 192.168.X.X? What about IPv6 DNS? ::1? |
In this situation, Pi-hole is running locally on the same device so IPv4 localhost (127.0.0.1) will work. |
Thanks |
For what it's worth - I experienced the automatic task start failure as well. I had initially followed instructions to set to "Run whether user is logged in or not", and the scheduled task wouldn't get run at startup. Anecdotally, I got it working by just reverting to the default setting "Run only when user is logged on" There are similar reported problems floating around, not sure if related:

Hi,
I can't make it work. Error code 2147943726. It seems to be a authentification problem. I use an online Microsoft account to login.
I tried to change user with my Microsoft account credentials but I can't.
The problem can be quickly fixed with a shortcut in the start menu for a pi-hole startup after login. The problem is that I'm letting a bit of tracking through at each startup. Though, I use a Microsoft account to connect to Windows, so there's no point in fighting Microsoft's tracking, I guess.
For info, I use 2FA and a Windows Hello PIN but I have disabled the credentials request at startup.
Thanks
