      Re: Turn Computer Monitors Off

      When I click run the command in current commands the monitor does turn off, but when I tell Alexa to turn it off, she says "ok" but doesn't turn off the monitor. On Windows.

            @David-0, this command works for me on my Windows 11 box:

            nircmd monitor off
            

            These are the relevant docs for that nircmd function:
            https://nircmd.nirsoft.net/monitor.html

            You could also consider this command:

            MultiMonitorTool.exe /TurnOff 2
            

            You'll need to make sure nircmd.exe or MultiMonitorTool.exe is in a folder referenced in your PATH environment variable. I just talked about that with @h6477801471 here:
