Unregisters a background task.





SYNTAX

Unregister-AppBackgroundTask [-AsJob] [-CimSession <CimSession[]>] [-ThrottleLimit <Int32>] -TaskID <String[]> [-Confirm] [-WhatIf]

DESCRIPTION

The Unregister-AppBackgroundTask cmdlet unregisters a background task. A background task performs an activity for an application, such as

downloading a file. You must have administrator access to unregister a background task.





PARAMETERS

-AsJob [<SwitchParameter>]

Runs the cmdlet as a background job. Use this parameter to run commands that take a long time to complete.

The cmdlet immediately returns an object that represents the job and then displays the command prompt. You can continue to work in the

session while the job completes. To manage the job, use the *-Job cmdlets. To get the job results, use the Receive-Job cmdlet.

For more information about Windows PowerShell???? background jobs, see about_Jobs.
