CronTab demo

This demo shows examining, creating, and removing cron jobs via crontab.

Output of Get-CronJob is a strongly typed object with properties like DayOfWeek or Command. Remove-CronJob prompts before removing the job unless you specify -Force.

Tab completion of -UserName is supported, e.g.

Get-CronJob -u
