How do I get all the information available from schtasks.exe via PowerShell Cmdlets?-CodePudding

When I use the PowerShell Cmdlet Get-ScheduledTaskInfo on a Windows server I get the following pieces of data

LastRunTime        : 22/04/1932 11:30:30
LastTaskResult     : 267011
NextRunTime        :
NumberOfMissedRuns : 0
TaskName           : \Microsoft\Windows\Workplace Join\Recovery-Check
TaskPath           :
PSComputerName     :

However, when I query the same scheduled task on the same Windows server using schtasks.exe I get far more information, as seen below.

HostName                             : ELT-W-PRD-AP-12
TaskName                             : \Microsoft\Windows\Workplace Join\Recovery-Check

Repeat: Every                        : N/A
Repeat: Until: Time                  : N/A
Repeat: Until: Duration              : N/A
Repeat: Stop If Still Running        : N/A

How can I extract the same information from the scheduled task using PowerShell Cmdlets, rather than relying on schtasks.exe?

CodePudding user response：

When you search with schtasks you used the /Verbose flag - you need to do the same here, then also say you want to view the entire list of retreived properties.

$info = Get-ScheduledTask -TaskName Test -Verbose | select -Property *
$info
write-host "Task's actions are" $info.actions "and triggers are" $info.Triggers
$runtimeInfo = Get-ScheduledTaskInfo $info.TaskName | select -property *
write-host "Last runtime info is" $runtimeInfo

edit: Get-ScheduledTaksInfo will only provide:

the last run-time information for a scheduled task.
