Are there any parameters defined for Task Scheduler arguments? Specifically, I'd like to send in the current location of the task.
For example: If I've got a task under Task Scheduler Library > My Application > Folder Name, I'd like to send Folder Name in as an argument to the action - something like %(CurrentLocation). Does Task Scheduler support anything like this?
You could wrap it in a PowerShell call and use .NET to get the machine name.
For "Program/script:" enter:
powershell
For "Add arguments (optional):" enter
/command "& { notepad $([System.Net.Dns]::GetHostEntry(\"\").HostName) }"
Replace <your_command> with the command you want to execute. The first argument to it will be the hostname.
