How do I disable a task on a local PC using group policy? Theres already a task on all local PCs and I need to disable it using group policy instead of touching all PC’s…..Any ideas?

  1. “scheduled tasks”

    Just delete the *.job file on there login script. I think they are stored in the…

    c:\windows\tasks

    folder. So your command would be…

    del c:\windows\tasks\mytask.job

    Either way I am not sure you can do this with normal user rights. You need to run the commands as administrator. This is one of the many shortfalls of GPO is that you can not manage scheduled tasks through it.
