On Windows Server 2019, I have a weekly task which is set to "Recur every 2 weeks". It actually runs every week. The "next run time" shows correctly that it's scheduled to run again in 2 weeks but when it comes next week which it's supposed to skip it runs anyways.

    The new Patch KB5003711 has superseded the old Patch KB5003243. And now the Problem with Tasks runs every weeks instead of every two week is solved on my Windows 10 1809 Machine.

    The Patch KB5003711 did not resove the problem. That's right. I still using the workaround above.
