What is a .job file in Windows [RESOLVED]

A .job file in Microsoft Windows is created by Task Scheduler, a Windows utility used to schedule automated tasks.

The file is a binary file with a fixed-length section and a variable-length section. Byte order is little-endian, and null (00) bytes are used for padding. 

You can use the Task Scheduler in Windows to execute tasks such as starting an application, sending an email message, or showing a message box. Tasks can be scheduled to execute in response to these events, or triggers.
