Windows 10: Is there any way to check the output of a hidden powershell script running trough task...

So I have a bunch of scripts that run trough task scheduler, some run every minute, some every hour others every few days, the ones that run every few days usually take several hours to complete and thus I don't like them running often.

Although none of them are really resource intensive.

Because I don't want the powershell window to be ever-present on my task bar, I made the scripts run as hidden windows, but now I wonder, if there is any way to check on the script progress once it starts running? I can see the powershell process on the task manager, but no idea if there is any way to make it visible

Problem Getting a Powershell Script to Run in Task Scheduler

Hi, I think you need to create a powershell script file and specify that as your action, not the specific powershell command.

See this for an extended example, and another below:

Run PowerShell Scripts from Task Scheduler

 

Uninstall hidden “Network Adapters” from Device Manager using PowerShell script

Steps:

1. Open Device Manager from Control Panel
2. Select “Show hidden devices” from View menu
3. Expand “Network adapters”
4. Find hidden adapters

Manually these hidden adapters can be uninstall by below steps

1. Right click on hidden adapter
2. Click on uninstall.
3. Click on Ok button.

How to uninstall these adapters using PowerShell script?

I have Administrator access still, this code throws error - Remove-ItemProperty : Requested registry access is not allowed.

 

Run PowerShell Script As An Administrator

Hi. So I've been searching online on a way to do this yet I cannot find a way to do it.

_______________________________________

I need this in specific:

I want to double click a PowerShell script file (which will run as an administrator) from Windows Explorer that has this as the script:
Set-MpPreference -DisableRealtimeMonitoring $true

(that script requires that PowerShell needs to be run as an administrator)
_______________________________________

So those are the restrictions:
No right-click>run PowerShell as an administrator
No opening a shortcut to PowerShell (as an administrator) and pasting the command


Thanks
