Strange that this is the fix as the code has always been this way and it obviously worked previously. I wonder what changed (elsewhere) to break this. Whatever it was, if it broke this then we should treat that as a red flag that it could have broken code elsewhere.

@brianteeman I don't have any clue about it because I haven't looked at the code of schedule tasks feature before. From what I see (by just code reading), $table->name will return name of the component stored in #__extensions table . By looking at the table, it is com_scheduler, so compare it with COM_SCHEDULER is wrong and that's the reason the code below that is not executed. So I just fix this small typo here, tested and it solved the issue.

I have tested this item ✅ successfully on b09ee6b

Tested successfully in Joommla 4.1.4-rc2-dev of 23 May in Wampserver 3.2.8 using PHP 8.0.15

Just did a quick test on an existing 4.1.3 site where the webcron key is not generated. I applied the patch from here. No change. Still cant generate the key. my mistake

Hmm. The patch worked for me for both 4.1 and 4.2, but for my local site, it is a new installation, not updating from old version of Joomla.

@brianteeman Could you please changed that line of code to the code below, then test it again to see if it works?

if ($context !== 'com_config.component' || strtolower($table->name) !== 'com_scheduler')
