Scheduled Tasks

[rjweaver]

Is there a way add a scheduled task, but have it disabled?

I have jobs set to do a defrag on all drives through the night. My management team has told me they want the jobs in the scheduled tasks, just defaulted as "disabled".

I have played around with the "schtasks", but couldn't find a "disabled" switch.

Any advice out there?

Thank You.

On the task tab you should have to uncheck active if you want to disable it.

Sorry I didn't make this more clear...

I need to be able to add a job to the task scheduler (through scripting or through the command prompt), but have it defaulted to "disabled".

Jt.exe should do the job but i didn't get to disable a job but the help say it can. It can be downloaded from here. You could delete and recreate the task with a vbs.
