-    scheduled task does not exist.
-- xScheduledTask:
-  - Add support to disable built-in scheduled tasks - See [Issue 74](https://github.com/PowerShell/xComputerManagement/issues/74).
-  - Fix unit test mocked schedule task object structure.
-  - Fix error message when trigger type is unknown - See [Issue 121](https://github.com/PowerShell/xComputerManagement/issues/121).
-  - Moved strings into separate strings file.
-  - Updated to meet HQRM guidelines.
-- xComputer:
-  - Resolved bug in Get-ComputerDomain where LocalSystem doesn"t have
