Not able to see scheduled tasks from windows 7

Question

Since upgrading to windows 7 I am no longer able to see scheduled tasks on a remote computer accessed by a UNC path (ie: \\mymachinename). Any ideas why?

Answer 1

well another way is opening task scheduler on your windows 7 machine and then right click on 'Task Scheduler Local' and the select connect to another computer.

Answer 2
