I have many tasks that I am tinkering with in Windows Task Scheduler. I would like to add a desktop shortcut that I can click to open the Scheduler. theSoftwareJedi's answer here shows the following command does what I want from the command line. How do I embed it into a desktop shortcut? I am using Windows 7.

%SystemRoot%\system32\taskschd.msc /s

On the desktop, make a rightclick, select New->Shortcut, insert the command %windir%\system32\taskschd.msc /s give it a name and select the icon from the Windows file %windir%\system32\miguiresource.dll.

Press your Start button → search for Task Scheduler → Right Click → Send to → Desktop

  • In Windows 7, I don't seem to have the option to search from the Start button. Instead it seems like I have to go to Help and search for Schedule there, get a help page which includes a link to Schedule a Task, and click on that link to open Scheduler. Let me know if I am missing something though.
