The two main sections of the Task Scheduler summary are the Task Status and the
Active Tasks sections. By default, the Task Status section displays the tasks that were
executed in the last 24 hours along with their status (running, succeeded, failed). The
drop-down list allows you to change the time interval for the tasks to be displayed from
what happened in the last hour all the way to the last 30 days. You can expand the name
of each task on this list to get additional details, such as the task result status, start time,
and end time. If the task ran multiple times over the period you selected, each run of the
task is listed individually under the main task name, where only the last run status is
displayed along with the time it completed.
The Active Tasks section lists every task that is currently active on the server. The
summary includes the name of the task, the next time it will run, as well as any triggers

that initiate it. The triggers concept extends the simple concept of running tasks at scheduled
intervals. You can still configure a task to run at a specific schedule, but now you
have the added flexibility of executing a task during a multitude of other events, such as
when the computer is idle or when a workstation is locked or unlocked.
Out of the box, Microsoft has included and configured a number of tasks.
