In the "Add arguments" field, start the line with a "/c " (without the double quotes, but with the space after the /c) then paste your original "Program/script" value.

Copy the current value of the "Program/script" field.

Edit the action you've defined in the Actions tab.

Go back to your first command (don't worry about the batch file) and do the following: Has run, and in losing the parent environment, the command often then terminates prematurely.

I've checked and unchecked the "store password" option.

I've chosen the "config for Windows 2008 R2" as well as "config for Windows 2008". I've checked and unchecked the use with highest priviledges option.
