Try to explicitly set the start directory for the task. You can set in Task Scheduler.

Select Task -> Right Click -> Properties -> Actions Tab -> Select Action -> Edit -> Start in (optional)

To me it seems that the current running directory is different when the exe is executed directly and when running through the task scheduler.

For reference:

What is the default working directory for a scheduled task in Windows 2008 R2?

Specifying the running directory for Scheduled Tasks using schtasks.exe
