How can I enable the Windows Task Scheduler History recording? (via Stack Overflow)

Posted by jpluimers on 2024/10/18

For my link archive, as apparently the history recording for the Windows (not just server) Task Scheduler is disabled [Wayback How can I enable the Windows Server Task Scheduler History recording? – Stack Overflow

  1. Open an elevated Task Scheduler (ie. right-click on the Task Scheduler icon and choose Run as administrator)
  2. In the Actions pane (right pane, not the actions tab), click Enable All Tasks History
That’s it. Not sure why this isn’t on by default, but it isn’t.

At the time of writing, I did not have energy to figure out which steps on the console to take to enable this history.

I did check this to be working in Windows 10 and 11.

Thanks [Wayback/Archive] User martti d for asking and [Wayback/Archive] User Brian Clark for answering.
