TaskSchedule Location

[msgoussi]

Hi..
When I use taskscheduler_create, it saves the task in "C:\Windows\System32\Tasks".

Is it possible to save in under "C:\Windows\System32\Tasks\Test", so it will be user to navigate.

this R package uses schtasks.exe to schedule the task
you can pass the user or an xml file to it if that helps you

My question is when I use taskscheduler_create, is there any argument to pass the location C:\Windows\System32\Tasks\Test so it would easier view all user tasks under one folder.

You can pass on an xml file containing all possible taskscheduler settings in argument schtasks_extra of taskscheduler_create.
R package taskscheduleR passes thing on to schtasks.exe https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/taskschd/schtasks
So you can do it if you understand the xml structure. Google schtasks.exe xml to find out how that task looks like or export a task scheduled with taskscheduleR in xml to see what it looks like

It seems that you misunderstood my point.
However i figured out how to create Task under specific folder

myscript <- system.file("extdata", "helloworld.R", package = "taskscheduleR")
taskscheduler_create(taskname = "Test\myfancyscript", rscript = myscript,
schedule = "ONCE", starttime = runon)

Good to hear that.
