windows - How to stop cron job of .bat file?

In Windows, there is no built-in "cron" service like in Unix-like systems. However, you can schedule tasks to run periodically using the Task Scheduler. If you have a .bat file scheduled as a task and you want to stop it, you can follow these steps:

1. Open Task Scheduler:

   • Press Windows + R to open the Run dialog.
   • Type taskschd.msc and press Enter.

2. Find the Scheduled Task:

   • In Task Scheduler, navigate to the folder where your task is located. Typically, it's under "Task Scheduler Library" > "My Tasks."
   • Look for your specific task in the list of tasks.

3. Stop the Task:

   • Right-click on the task you want to stop.
   • Select "End" or "End Task."

This will stop the currently running instance of the task. If the task is scheduled to run periodically and you want to prevent it from running in the future:

1. Disable the Task:
   • Right-click on the task.
   • Select "Disable."

This will prevent the task from running according to its schedule. You can enable it again later if needed.

Remember that these steps will only work if the task has been scheduled using the Windows Task Scheduler. If you are using a different method to schedule your .bat file, you'll need to provide more details about the specific method you're using.
