Viewing Task History

The History tab on the properties page for a task contains events filtered from the Operational events for the Task Scheduler in the Event Viewer and enables an administrator to see success and failures for any given task without having to review all task-related event information for a system or collection of systems.

Note

Although the Task Scheduler enables an administrator to create folders for organizing tasks and new tasks can be given meaningful names, after a folder or task is created, it cannot be renamed. Further, tasks cannot be moved from one folder to another. However, tasks can be exported and then imported into a new folder or another system.
