Can't connect my account, don't get a token prompt after install

[Alexander Cleary]

Can't use this service at all, seems good in theory, but i don't get a popup to input a token after install on windows 10 so it's pretty much useless to me, i can't do anything

@alexander-cleary, you could try deleting your c:\(username).TRIGGERcmdData folder, then close and re-open the TRIGGERcmdAgent app. It should re-create that data folder and prompt you for a token.

Did you get any errors during install?

Do you have the TRIGGERcmd icon in your tray?

@russ

Thanks, that worked, i deleted it and it prompted me

i'm really struggling to understand how the instructions are laid out here, i'm having the following issues

1. Text command editor. I'll make changes in that, press save and nothing is changed when i open it back up even when i press save

2. I'm trying to create some basic commands just to test, for example open word. I've tried pasting the location of the exe in the command such as

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\root\Office16\WINWORD.EXE"

But when i press run it doesn't open the exe

i've also tried putting Open "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\root\Office16\WINWORD.EXE"

but it doesn't work

is there a tutorial somewhere that explains how create these commands?

[Alexander Cleary]

@russ so i just figured out how to open word. I use "Start" and i don't need to put the file number, just the exe

How would I open up an excel file on my desktop, i'm struggling to work that out

[Alexander Cleary]

@russ okay.... i'm making progress here, i figured out that i can create a bat file to open the excel file

how do i trigger the bat file command?

[Russ]

@alexander-cleary, you trigger a .bat command by putting the full path to that .bat file in the command field. Like this:

Also, to open a particular spreadsheet, you don't need a .bat file. You can create a command like this:
