Windows 10: How to access/import a task’s raw file not .xml

I performed a clean install recently and forgot to export a custom task I’d created in Task Scheduler. I found its raw file in my Windows.old folder not an .xml like when a task is exported, there is no file extension on it; is there anyway to interface with it and see what the task’s settings were?

Referring to given link, it describes only import XML file.

I would like to do following step:

2. Open the .xml file with Notepad.exe.
3. Copy its contents into your reply.

 

Import Scheduled Tasks in bulk

Hello @kitpzyxmsir, With the code in the link, I would suggest that you try with THREE Scheduled Tasks as a test case. I did a bit of research for you and found the below which worked. It works if ALL the schtasks .xml files are inside the Current Directory . . . > Import all schtasks .xml files inside the current directory via Batch I hope this helps.
