Attempting to tame Scheduled Tasks in W10-21H2

MDL newbie here.

i'm configuring a newly installed, "slimmed-down" copy of W10-Iot-LTSC-21. Attempting to neuter or eliminate some of the bloat from Scheduled Tasks. And because I want to install this same OS configuration to my laptop I attempted to semi-automate this cleanup with a cmd file:

Because ST had already blocked me from deleting some empty folders I used nSudo to elevate cmd.exe to Trusted Installer in order to run this script. Even so the process generated "access denied" errors on 8 of the individual tasks plus 3 empty folders!

Here's the errors:

Spoiler: Errors

FIXED - MGR S/B MANAGER

So how can I figure out what's protecting these few tasks / folders?
