@Russ that's what I thought, it's working turning off/on so I will not change it. Thanks

@Iril, yes, I'll send you a refund soon tonight.

EDIT: You should have it now.

@twitchBK, I see that the email address associated with your TRIGGERcmd forum account is subscribed, but maybe you have another TRIGGERcmd account?

Let me know if you want me to cancel that subscription and refund your payment so you can try again.

If you log into your TRIGGERcmd account, and click the Subscribe button at the bottom of the page, you can subscribe using a Paypal account with any email address - it doesn't need to match.

Wow... I checked my Google Home app for the first time in years to check my routines. They all were formatted saying "tell" triggerCMD instead of "ask" triggerCMD. Strange how "tell" worked for the past few years all the way up till the other day. Changed them all to "ask" and they are working again. Sorry to bother you...

@Strahan, you'll find a Paypal subscribe button at the bottom of the Instructions page.

@Phillip-Brown, this isn't quite what you asked for, but I did find that Nirsoft has BluetoothView that can run a command or play an audio file when it detects a new bluetooth device.

@Popeye57, the Instructions page is in your account on the triggercmd.com website. Here's a direct link.

@kellanist, I generally update this page when I update the agent:

https://www.triggercmd.com/forum/topic/14/new-windows-agent-version

I usually update the Windows version first, then the Linux and Raspberry Pi version, then the Mac version. The agent doesn't prompt you when there's a new version. Also, I very rarely update it. If there's a feature you'd like me to add, I'm all ears.

@Carter-Brewer, good question. TRIGGERcmd runs a command on your computer. That command can run a script or program you've written with code. These are some common types of code, and an example command to run them:

Batch script - built into Windows: c:\scripts\mybatchfile.bat
Powershell script - built into Windows: powershell -file c:\scripts\emailmydocs.ps1
Visual Basic script - built into Windows: cscript c:\scripts\myscript.vbs
AutoIT - requires a download: c:\scripts\mycompiledscript.exe
Python script - requires a download: python c:\scripts\test.py

Try this:
Create a c:\scripts folder, open Notepad, and copy/paste the two lines below into it, then save it in your c:\scripts folder as OpenGoogle.bat.

timeout 10 start www.google.com

Then create a TRIGGERcmd command like this:

It's a simple example batch script that will open Google 10 seconds after you run it.

@Cesar-Manente, awesome. You're welcome.

Thanks @fennectech. Good info.

@Lewis-S, awesome. Nice job figuring that out.

@Chaim-Tscholkowsky, awesome.

@Haresh-Shah, please check again. I found your paypal subscription and I fixed your account - you're subscribed now.

You subscribed before I moved TRIGGERcmd to new servers last night. This is one reason I upgraded. Sometimes the Paypal communication failed because of a DNS problem.

@Leo-Dobrittz, please tell me more. Do you have an Echo dot that's working otherwise? Where do you see our hear that error message? Do you see that in the Alexa app on your phone, or what?

Sorry, I haven't seen that one yet, and I didn't find anything on Google either.

@Forex-BR2019, awesome, yea that's the one you want.

@Frank-Malczewski For anyone reading this post, we solved the problem.

Before I followed the instructions above for sharing my computer with my wife (creating a triggercmd account for her and sharing my computer), I had tried to add her to MY triggercmd account by going on HER phone to HOME / SETUP DEVICE / WORKS WITH GOOGLE and linked to TriggerCMD Smart Home, which it accepted. But after following Russ' process for sharing the computer, neither of us could use Google to turn stuff on or off.

What I had to do is DISCONNECT TriggerCMD Smart Home on HER phone, then reconnect it so it picked up her new triggercmd.com account. You cannot have two people trying to access the same account.

Problem solved and now we both can talk to Google to turn lights on and off.

Thanks Russ for working with me on this...

EDIT: I see that Russ also posted that we solved this! We must have been typing at the same time...

@Ricardo-Pereira, ok, I think @Xander's nircmd idea is a good one for Windows.

Also if you set up your Google Assistant commands to run as routines in the Google Home app Google assistant won't reply with anything. I have set all my commands to run as routines to avoid having to hear google verbally confirm after every command.

After setting it up I spent hours trying to figure out why sometimes Google would run my command silently and other times I would get an annoying reply, "Ok, turning on the bedroom light" for example. I finally realized that I had set my routine up with a command like "Turn on the bedroom light" but I would sometimes unknowingly speak it reversed "Turn the bedroom light on" and Google would just run the standard command and not my routine. Setting up the routine with two commands, stated both ways, fixed the problem.
