Problem

When going to save the backup database Windows Task the following error may occur:

Task Scheduler

An error has occurred for the task <task name>. Error message: The following error was reported: A specified logon session does not exist. It may have already been terminated.

Solution

This is due to the following group policy being enabled:

Computer Configuration | Windows Settings | Security Settings | Local Policies | Security Options

Network access: Do not allow storage of passwords and credentials for network authentication

This policy has most likely been set at the domain level and will need to be modified there.
