PowerShell is widely used to automate routine tasks, helping you become more efficient by letting your computer handle repetitive work. Automation scenarios in PowerShell range from simple file management to complex system administration tasks. With just a few lines of code, you can schedule backups, generate reports, or even clean up old files. These capabilities make PowerShell a powerful tool for anyone looking to streamline their daily workflow.

Once you have written a PowerShell script, you may want it to run automatically at regular intervals, such as every day or week. This is where Task Scheduler comes in. Task Scheduler is a built-in Windows tool that lets you schedule scripts to run at specific times or in response to certain events. By using Task Scheduler, you can ensure your automation scripts run reliably without manual intervention, making your workflow even more efficient.
