Schedule your task to be run as System. The command below will schedule a script to be run in the background without showing powershell console window:

schtasks /create /tn myTask /tr "powershell -NoLogo -WindowStyle hidden -file myScript.ps1" /sc minute /mo 1 /ru System

/ru switch lets you change the user context in which the scheduled task will be executed.
