VBS objshell.AppActivate doesn't work with Windows Task Scheduler

Question

Hi all,
This script do the following : 
Open Adobe Flash media Live Encoder with an encoding profile
Activate the Adobe Flash... Window
Send enter key to start encoding
Set objShell = WScript.CreateObject( "WScript.Shell" )
objShell.Run """C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Flash Media Live Encoder 3.2\FlashMediaLiveEncoder.exe"" /p ""C:\Users\process\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Flash Media Live Encoder 3.2\profile.xml"""
'Loading time
WScript.Sleep 5000
objshell.AppActivate ("Adobe Flash Media Live Encoder 3.2")
WScript.Sleep 5000
objShell.SendKeys "{ENTER}" 'start encoding
This script perfectly works manually, but the objshell.appactivate command doesn't work when i run it with the windows task Scheduler.
Any ideas ? Thx

Hi to all! I have found workaround for this issue - I wrote vbs, made run it via bat file, and converted the bat file to exe
vbs
Set oShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
If oShell.AppActivate ("Connecting error to Bee") Then
WScript.Sleep 2000
oShell.SendKeys "%{F4}"
End If
bat
start C:\Users\User\Desktop\close.vbs
bat to exe
Advanced BAT to EXE Converter v2.83
I know it's some weird solution but it is working with Win Task Scheduler correctly. Try it ;)
In some cases you need to mark checkbox "run this program as an administrator" and (or not) disable UAC.
