This list shows detailed information about each task:

Status |
The current status of the task. Indicates if a task is ready to run, currently running, or disabled. |
Last run result |
The last status of this task. This column shows if the last execution of a task was successful, if it failed, or if it has never been executed yet. |
Schedule options |
The time parameters that were defined for this task. This determines when and how often it will be executed. |
Command line options |
Shows the command line parameters that will be used for this task. |
Run as... |
The account information that is used for this task. Please note: If no explicit options file is used for this task, TreeSize will use the settings of this user. |
