Mass export Tasks from Windows Task Scheduler:
Windows Task Scheduler
holds all the tasks which was created by an application to periodically check
for updates or by you to send an email when somebody logs in. Now if you want
to create same type of tasks in another folder, Task Scheduler gives you an
option to export them one by one and not all of them together.
The below steps helps
you to export all the tasks in bulk.
All the Tasks created
in Windows are stored in the Task Folder of Windows System Directory, for
example, C:\Windows\System32\Tasks.
·
Navigate to Tasks
Folder.
·
Here you will see a
couple of folders with some files inside it. They represent the same folder
structure of the Task Scheduler and files have same name too.
·
Now copy the task
files to the machine you want to export to. You can also use it to backup your
tasks in case your computer needs a re \installation, so you don’t have to
create again.
·
Now rename the files
with extension as .XML, this is the same extension used when you export the
tasks using the Task Scheduler Interface.
·
Once renamed, now use
the Task Scheduler Import task feature to import them one by one as Windows
will not recognize them if you drop them directly into the Tasks Folder of Windows.
