DESCRIPTION

The Get-ScheduledTask cmdlet gets the task definition object of a scheduled task that is registered on a computer.

EXAMPLES

Example 1: Get a scheduled task definition object

Get-ScheduledTask -TaskName "SystemScan"
TaskPath                          TaskName                        State
--------                          --------                        --------
\                                 SystemScan                      Ready

This command gets the definition object of the SystemScan scheduled task in the root folder.

Example 2: Get an array of scheduled task definition objects

Get-ScheduledTask -TaskPath "\UpdateTasks\*"
TaskPath                          TaskName                        State
--------                          --------                        --------
\UpdateTasks                      UpdateApps                      Ready
\UpdateTasks                      UpdateDrivers                   Ready
\UpdateTasks                      UpdateOS                        Disabled
\UpdateTasks                      UpdateSignatures                Running

This command gets an array of task definitions objects from the UpdateTasks folder.

Example 3: Get an array of scheduled task definition objects in multiple paths

Get-ScheduledTask -TaskPath "\Microsoft\Windows\Work Folders\","\Microsoft\Windows\Workplace Join\"
TaskPath                                       TaskName                          State
--------                                       --------                          -----
\Microsoft\Windows\Work Folders\               Work Folders Logon Synchroniza... Ready
\Microsoft\Windows\Work Folders\               Work Folders Maintenance Work     Ready
\Microsoft\Windows\Workplace Join\             Automatic-Device-Join             Disabled
\Microsoft\Windows\Workplace Join\             Device-Sync                       Disabled
\Microsoft\Windows\Workplace Join\             Recovery-Check                    Disabled

This command gets task definition objects from multiple task paths

PARAMETERS

-AsJob

Runs the cmdlet as a background job. Use this parameter to run commands that take a long time to complete.

Type: SwitchParameter
Parameter Sets: (All)
Aliases:

Required: False
Position: Named
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: False

-CimSession

Type: CimSession[]
Parameter Sets: (All)
Aliases: Session

Required: False
Position: Named
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: False

-TaskPath

Specifies an array of one or more paths for scheduled tasks in Task Scheduler namespace. You can use "*" for a wildcard character query. You can use \* for the root folder.

The throttle limit applies only to the current cmdlet, not to the session or to the computer.
