Hello @Russ, I know you must be tired of explaining how to open windows through alexa until you record a video
However, I am new to the programming world (I started because of your program) and I still have difficulty because of the language difference (until I try to translate your video through Google)

I activated a Network Card Function in Bios, All right
But at the time make the command I don't know how to proceed
I Tried
WakeOnLAN c8: 60: 00: 9b: 69: 1a (com meu endereço de rede)
and
/root/computer_on_off.sh
.
.
Is Computer_on_off.sh a shortcut I need to take to trigger?

If you teach me the step by step of the written command for me it’s easier to translate
Thanks in advance for your patience

@Marcelo-Botelho, you don't need to use the computer_on_off.sh. That's a complicated scenario, so you should not start there.

You have two computers, and you're trying to use one computer to turn on the other computer, correct?

My video shows me using a Raspberry Pi to turn on my Windows computer, but you don't have to use a Raspberry Pi. If you have two Windows computers, you could use this utility instead:

WakeMeOnLan.exe has a spanish version, and a GUI which can make it easy to test, then after you get that working, you can make a TRIGGERcmd command like this:

c:\tools\WakeMeOnLan.exe /wakeup 40-65-81-A7-16-23

This assumes you copied the WakeMeOnLan.exe utility into t:\tools and 40-65-81-A7-16-23 is the mac address of the nic in the computer you're turning on.

You can find the mac address by typing ipconfig /all on the computer you want to turn on. You'll get output like this:
