[b]Start[/b] > [b]Settings[/b] > [b]Control Panel[/b] > [b]Scheduled Tasks[/b].

Assuming that you know the Path name to which you wish to redirect the output, Right Click on the task in question & select [b]Properties[/b]. Under the [b]Task[/b] tab, edit the [b]Run[/b] field accordingly, by changing the string in Quotes, at the end of the Command string, to be the new target.

Otherwise, select [b]Delete[/b] and re-create the task.
