running the cmd command
schtasks /query /fo LIST
Gives me a list of all scheduled tasks running on my system. Example:
HostName: CHESTNUT105B
TaskName: Calculator
Next Run Time: 12:00:00, 10/28/2010
Status: Running
HostName: CHESTNUT105B
TaskName: GoogleUpdateTaskMachineCore
Next Run Time: At logon time
Status:
HostName: CHESTNUT105B
TaskName: GoogleUpdateTaskMachineCore
Next Run Time: 13:02:00, 10/28/2010
Status:
HostName: CHESTNUT105B
TaskName: GoogleUpdateTaskMachineUA
Next Run Time: 17:02:00, 10/27/2010
Status:
How can I filter the list so it only shows me the details of the task 'Calculator' ?
the \tn argument gives me an error Invalid Argument / Option

To open Scheduled Tasks, click Start, click All Programs, point to Accessories, point to System Tools, and then click Scheduled Tasks. Use the Search option to search for "Schedule" and choose "Schedule Task" to open the Task Scheduler. Select the "Task Scheduler Library" to see a list of your Scheduled Tasks.
To retrieve the existing tasks in the task scheduler using PowerShell, we can use the PowerShell command Get-ScheduledTask. We can use the Task Scheduler GUI to retrieve the scheduled tasks. To retrieve using PowerShell, use the Get-ScheduledTask command.
Overview of the at command. You can use the at command to schedule a command, a script, or a program to run at a specified date and time. You can also use this command to view existing scheduled tasks.
Use / instead of \. This works just fine.
schtasks /query /fo LIST /tn Calculator
Unfortunatly I can not add a comment to ZEE's comment (not enough "reputation").
With the /TN switch you have to use the "path" - containing the folder in the task scheduler. Or you get an error:
"ERROR: The system cannot find the file specified."
For example:
schtasks /Query /TN \Microsoft\Windows\Backup\Microsoft-Windows-WindowsBackup
(see also Jonathon Kellers Blog: http://www.jonathankeller.com/2012/02/schtasks-query-tn-tasks-over-network.html).
For better output I recommend the switch "/fo list" -> output as a list and verbose "/v":
schtasks /Query /TN \Microsoft\Windows\Backup\Microsoft-Windows-WindowsBackup /fo list /v
