Run a file after logging in from a locked computer
« on: January 18, 2009, 12:23:59 AM »
Hi everyone

I'm looking for a way to run a batch file I wrote after I've logged in again from a locked state.
The tutorials I've found so far on the internet only concern running files once when the user logs in from a fresh booted computer.

I am running Windows XP Professional.

      yeah it really easy use task scheduler to create a task every time you log on task scheduler will run a certain program or display a message or send notification email. you can choose to do this when windows starts or every time you log on

      go to control panel - administrative tools - computer management - then select task scheduler open or expand folders and then create a basic task by right clicking in blank area main screen. name the task. select trigger every time i login.

      let me know how it goes this is based on vista but looks the same as when i had xp pro so it should work... :)

      Hope all goes well.
