What is a Windows Scheduled Tasks check?
A Windows Tasks check is a process designed to capture information about the scheduled tasks that are enabled and not hidden on a Windows server. It involves running a console command to gather this information.
Regularly performing a Scheduled Tasks check can provide valuable insights into server operations and help identify potential issues. It can ensure that tasks are running as expected and that resources are being used efficiently.
