I'm having trouble with this too... I wonder if it works in vista?

Great, thanks!

Can anybody help, how to extend the script to run on locking of windows as well?

I couldn't get it to work in Windows 7, and debugging it I figuered the SoundSet didn't work. I looked up the command and they say that SoundSet doesn't work for Vista and above.

However they provide two solutions:

1) Run the script in Xp compatability mode
2) Replace the SoundSet muter with a "keystroke" mute.

I generally like to avoid compatability modes, so I went with the keystroke approach.

To mute, therefore, replace all "SoundSet, 1..." lines with:

Send {Volume_Mute}

I don't want my computer to unmute on restart so I don't care to know how to unmute it automatically.

I want my computer to send some key presses when I resume or go into sleep mode. So I modeled a script after this one, but it's not functioning:

And in WM_POWERBROADCAST there is the

PBT_POWERSETTINGCHANGE
identifier -> 32787 (0x8013)

but how to use it?

Is this a script or something I need to compile?

Compiler or interpreter name to use?

C, C++, C#, Java, Python, DOS .bat or .cmd?

sorry - there are so many choices

thanks

Going to the main page of this domain and downloading AutoHotkey might help... Wink
