How can I backup and restore the Windows 7 Scheduled Tasks? I'd want to be able to restore the tasks on any other Windows 7 box. I've found the Tasks folder in Windows, but is a simple copy/paste going to work? I found this post but it's relating to Windows 2003 and thus might not be applicable to Windows 7? http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/winserverMigration/thread/467e5cab-2368-42de-ae78-d86b644a0e71

hi, you can use the schtasks command such as: schtasks /query /XML>mytasks.xml This will export all tasks from the system into an xml file. More info here: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc725744%28v=ws.10%29.aspx I would probaly export the tasks which are really needed on the other machine individually using the /TN switch you can then import the task via the Scheduled Tasks interface or with the /create switch. hope this helps David :: Please vote if the info helped you :: Please post back so everyone can benefit from the solution ::
