PowerShell: Running PowerShell Scripts as Scheduled Task
| Schtasks.exe – Enables an administrator to create, delete, query, change, run, and end scheduled tasks on a local or remote computer. Running Schtasks.exe without arguments displays the status and next run time for each registered task.
If you have jobs that need to execute regularly, you can manage them with a PowerShell script and make it a scheduled task: |
 |
To create a scheduled task do.
schtasks /CREATE /TN CheckHealthScript /TR "powershell.exe -noprofile -executionpolicy Unrestricted -file %public%\checkhealth.ps1" /IT /RL HIGHEST /SC DAILY
To get a list of scheduled tasks / enumerate scheduled tasks do:
schtasks /query
