Hi,
What I actually want is check it from the GUI
Check the Action, is the destination file really exist or what, does the schedule start a service or start an executable.

Did you open the services and confirm that the service is really there, as it seems from the error from Powershell, the service does not exist or it has a different name.

Kill the app.
