Text Value
The WorkingDirectory element is required when the Application element contains the relative path of the application that is to be run.
You can also use the working directory when your console task needs to write some temporary files and the script or executable cannot do this from its current directory. In that case, to set up a temporary working directory, you would use the %temp% environment variable as the value of the WorkingDirectory element.
