Create and use task templates in Remote Desktop
You can save a task’s settings as a template to reuse for future tasks. For example, if you always use certain copy options for a Copy Items task, you can save those settings as a template, and apply them to any newly created Copy Items task.
There are existing, built-in templates for the Send UNIX Command task, which can’t be removed. For information, see Execute commands remotely. Templates are stored only for their own task type.
