I've got SyncToy scheduled to run according to its instructions. It never
actually runs though. The application event log indicates that the run
started for all folder pairs. The next entry is as follows:

Event Type: Information
Event Source: SyncToy
Event Category: None
Event ID: 1
User: N/A
Computer:
Description:
Exception: It is invalid to show a modal dialog or form when the application
is not running in UserInteractive mode. Specify the ServiceNotification or
DefaultDesktopOnly style to display a notification from a service application.

When I check the files, nothing was synced. It appears to only run when
someone is logged in. What's the point of scheduling a sync to tie up your
computer while you're on it?

It'd sure be nice to get some help on this.
