Report to see who a windows scheduled task is running as?
Is there a way to make a report that shows windows scheduled tasks, and who (what user) they're set to run as? I've found how to do it with services, but not scheduled tasks.

Not at this time. We do have plans on adding additional data (such as author, user, etc.) of scheduled tasks.
Ohh... yes: I too would love an "User Account" field in the database/selectable for reportings etc. It would be very handy - say when changing pw on "service-accounts" 😉
And it has been for 4 years, since your request - so maybe...??? 😉
I would like this option me too, it will help people know where to look after a password change on domain/administrator account, if you have run as administrator on a scheduled task.
We can help our self now from PDQ to track "run as domain/administrator" services and thank you for that.
Has anyone meanwhile found a solution for this?
Hi Sorry for bumping an old thread but has anyone managed to do this?
I need to retire an admin account and thought this would be a perfect job for inventory :(
Let's bump this again? I need to see where a specific account is in use, either where running a service or a scheduled task. Services was straight forward as I can create a collection based on the Service Account. Scheduled Tasks doesn't have any data points for the run as service.
Still not a field grabbed natively with the Windows Task Schedules Scanner, but ran across the following article that gives some examples of how to accomplish this with PowerShell, and have used this successfully in a PowerShell Scanner. The below example would only be looking for scheduled tasks running under the specified account.
