Slyke Posted January 18, 2009 Report Share Posted January 18, 2009 Does anyone know how to execute the default screensaver, and have the computer lock after it's run (Even if "Lock This Computer" is not ticked inside screensaver properties)?I want to run this from the command line too.Here's what I had so far:Aurora.scr /s|%windir%\System32\rundll32.exe user32.dll,LockWorkStationThis however just locks the computer, then runs the screensaver no matter which way I place the commands.Also I haven't figured out how to execute the default screensaver yet.Any suggestions would be appreciated :).

Hb_Kai Posted January 18, 2009 Report Share Posted January 18, 2009 Try it with a batch file using the screensaver command on the first line, followed by a second line to lock the computer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slyke Posted January 18, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2009 Tried, but as soon as it executes the lock computer command... well the computer is locked down.It appears that it will have to be done through some parameters.

Hb_Kai Posted January 18, 2009 Report Share Posted January 18, 2009 Doesn't there need to be no screen usage/activity before the screensaver goes on? If so, then it would kind of make sense for it to be done in this routine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
