We see this in the log as we try to run many scripts that we have. It's like it doesn't know the userID which I think is causing the error.

hi, The script is run under user of tpenick, right? May I know what's the value of user environment variable TMP? You may login Windows with user tpenick, run _cmd_ command to open Command Prompt window and then run _set tmp_ to show that environment variable value. ---

Gavin, When the ID logs into the server we do see the TMP is set to C:\users???known\AppData\Local\Temp. It looks like his profile is no longer valid either. ---

You may reset that environment variable value to a correct one or make it empty. I believe that will make the automation script works again.
