I moved my SAS tool and its related VBS script to a new folder. I've updated the paths in both the Task Scheduler action settings and inside the VBScript (using full paths to the SAS executable).

The script runs perfectly when I execute it manually, but when run by Task Scheduler, it just shows a "Running" status indefinitely and never finishes.

What am I likely missing regarding the working directory or the scheduled environment that would cause the script to hang on the SAS call? 
(current my only solution is to create a new vbs script and schedule it in task scheduler and disable the old one.)
