Re: mass change passwords on tasks



You can change the password from command line using schtasks:

SCHTASKS /Change /RP password /TN "taskname"

By changing the password from command line, you will be able to verify
the password that you key-in is correct or not.
You can use the same line of command to change the rest of the task by
just changing the task name.

I have a few servers that need to run various scheduled tasks. I have used
task scheduler to schedule the tasks and used an account specifically
designed to run tasks on all the servers. Recently I had to change the
password for this account and it was a hassle because I either missed a
couple of tasks or had the CAPS lock on when I entered and confirmed the
passwords

Are there any utilities that will mass change the passwords on my scheduled
tasks for me, preferably something that might do it on multiple computers
