@A-McF / @russ I'm interest in this script but I don't know how start. I made a file .vbs with your code but won´t run and I don´t know how configure triggercmd with that. I supose the trigger is the file and the param is "the search". I´m correct?

@Daniel-Estrada, please tell me more. What operating system are you using? Windows 10?

What happens when you try to run the TRIGGERcmd Agent?

You should get a tray icon in the lower right near your clock if you run Windows. You might need to click the up arrow to see it.

@Marcos-silva, I just tested the Alexa TRIGGERcmd Smart Home skill myself and it worked for me.

Have you tried using it without your Alexa Routine? Like just, "Alexa, turn on calculator" ?

One theory I have is maybe you changed something about your command, which would delete and re-create the Alexa device. If so, you'd have to re-add it to your Routine.

@wendergalan, I found this tool called cmdow that can move a window to specific coordinates.

This batch file opens Calculator, then moves it to my second monitor, then maximizes it:

calc cmdow calculator /mov 2000 60 cmdow calculator /max

I haven't found a solution for turning specific monitors on or off yet.

About having different prices for different countries, I'd rather not do that. Paypal doesn't give me that option, and I think $19.95 is still pretty cheap for a full year.

@JoseTCMD, I see here you solved it. Thanks for letting me know.

@Russ Omg. Thank you, Russ. Thank you. ;))

Create a trigger that calls Nirsoft.net's NirCMD program. It's got a ton of options. I use it to Mute my system but it does have a SetBrightness option.

I DID! 😄
Thanks, Russ.

@Felipe-Martins-Araruna, can you give some details? Are you using Windows? What's the program?

I'll assume Windows, and give some steps that generally work:

Use Windows search to find the program's icon. In this example I searched for chrome. Right-click that icon and select Open file location

Right-click the shortcut and click Properties

Copy the Target

Right-click the TRIGGERcmd tray icon, click GUI Command Editor, add a command, and paste that Target in the Command field:

For example, the Target in my Chrome icon is:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe"

You should just be able to add an "Exit" command at the end of your batch.

Or, you can 'pipeline' your commands by putting the | command in between them:

cd /d C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data | del /s History*

@F4u5t, yea I thought so too. It's not exactly a TRIGGERcmd thing but figured people on this forum might find it useful.

@bignoob, does it work if you run the command yourself, in a cmd window?

You can copy that chromedriver exe into a new folder, then add that folder to your PATH environment variable, or just copy the exe into C:\windows folder which is already in your PATH by default.
