Error message: the selected task 0 no longer exists

Sometimes, when you will open up Task Scheduler, then you may see a message like this:
“The task selected 0 exists no longer . To see current tasks, then click on Refresh.”

Also, you will not be able to view the half of your tasks in this case, although after running a FO LIST/Query/SCHTASKS, you will see they are still there and seem like they are working.

I have tried lots of different ways to solve this problem, but I have found the way finally that fixed this problem:

Go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindows NTCurrentVersionTracingSCMRegular
Then, add or set the REG_DWORD TracingDisabled equal to 0 , and reboot then.

Hopefully, this answer is helpful, easier and clearer steps to fix the problem.
