I saw two posts here, one about .pyw files and one about running a file during startup in Windows that showed me to run a python file without opening up CMD (using pythonw).

I have a flask file that I would like to run when I log in to my computer/ when I power on my computer. So I created a task, with the highest privileges and for the action, I set pythonw server.pyw <path\to\file>. This task didn't run. I was able to cross-verify with the Display All Running Tasks feature on the Task Scheduler. I even tried running python server.py (Yes, I changed the file extension) and that still didn't work.

My specs:

Win 10

Python 3.7.6 From Anaconda

Any ideas on troubleshooting?
