I have scheduled Microsoft Windows server console application (that output to stdout) using the task scheduler . It is long running and might take weeks to finish. Is there a way to "tap" into the console output on demand to check on the task's progress ?

is there a programming way to do it ? Perhaps I can ask programmers in Stackoverflow , should I ? – dan_l Mar 13 '12 at 07:12

but it is running in the background via the windows task scheduler. Is there a way to tap into what it is printing to a console stream (such as stdout , stderr .. etc ) ? BTW , it is a robocopy task copying a lot of files over a slow WAN. – dan_l Mar 13 '12 at 12:49
