List, add, edit, delete Windows Scheduled Tasks from the command-line

Question

Is there a command-line tool that can be used to programatically list, add, edit and delete Windows Scheduled tasks?

I realize that there are better alternatives to Scheduled Tasks, but I need to make changes to an existing set of tasks on a large number of PCs and would like to script it.

Thanks, Jon

Solution 1

See This link at Microsoft on using at and schtasks to manage scheduled tasks from the command line.

Solution 2

schtasks.exe /change /TN pepe /ENABLE
