    Is it possible to enable one task history, and not all task history. I need to enable this for System restore.

    Thanks in advance.

    I don’t see any checkboxes or anything else labeled “Enable All Task History” under the Action tab of the task properties. I’m supposed to select the task, open its properties and look in the Action tab. right?

    Right click the Task Scheduler Library node and you will see “Enable All tasks History”
