thanks for the nircmd workaround!!!!


For me, the conflict was with a Discord applet that was installed with the Logitech Gaming Software for my mouse and keyboard.

I made a modified version of a plugin called OSD Menu not to be confused with On Screen Menu plugin.


I do not remember how far I got with it but I do know I added a built in menu system for the MicasaVerde Vera plugin that uses the same engine. So I could strip it out and put it into this ...

Thanks for the reply in my last post on the OSM thread.

I like using OSM on my PC as a quick menu to adjust volume and open apps, which I have mapped to open on my left wheel-mouse click. Currently I have ...

have you tried using the other monitor off action???

Yes, I've tried the other action. Still crashes EG.

I might have found whats causing the conflict. EG's sleep monitor action might be conflicting with Logitechs Gaming software for mouse and keyboard. Specifically the Logitech Discord app, which can be deleted in it's program folder. But it may be conflicting with the Logitech software entirely.

Just better hope you don't get a bout of laryngitis .

This is a clever method to avoid M$ from forcing their spyware updates. So you're basically automating a script to run, which continually changes the active hours every 6 hours, to avoid it from engaging a restart?

I see you use ScheduleGhost to fire the script. Why not use Microsofts own Task ...

Thanks for the quick reply. So if I want to use the payload, I need some python. Did you read the rest of my post? as you can change so it doesn't use a payload.
