We've had to do this, but the time window was measured in hours - admin
access required for the afternoon to allow installation of some software or
something like that.  We had to rely on obfuscation - eg bury the sched task
deep inside the scheduled tasks tree under an unlikely name. 

 

Still, as below, a tricky admin is hard to wall up completely.

Or the user could add another local admin account for later use.  I would do
it with restricted groups and set a calendar appointment for myself, if this
is a one off.

... but realize that if you have admin rights you can just delete the task
;)
