How to identify the script being run by a powershell task
I'm running a powershell script on Windows 11. The process was started automatically by the task scheduler and is working as expected.
I can see a couple of powershell tasks running as 'background processes' in the task-scheduler. How can identify the name of the script being run? Basically I want to kill the process, but would like to confirm beforehand that I've identified the correct one.
I've tried right-clicking on the task, but properties only seem to show the powershell properties NOT the script details.

If you know the script is executed by Task Scheduler, then the easiest way to manually stop it is using Task Scheduler - just find the task and click "End" in the context menu:
