Lock Workstation Shortcut

Hi all this command would be usefull if you are running a batch file so for example.

you want a user to autologon... Install an application and lock the dektop.

If you want to do ctrl + Alt + Del commands from an RDP session you can use ctrl + alt + end and that will send the command remotely ;-) hope this helps!

Lock Workstation Shortcut

I only lock my computers to show off any fancy users I have on my Domain Controller (if they are logged into them), such as 'LUCYIANNAMORELLI' or 'NATASHAHAMILTON'. Securitywise, it can be bypassed easily and it doesn't truly lock the computer.

    Ever since Microsoft released SP2 I got realy annoyed by the fact the every single click has to be

    "features" is that windows asks everytime I want to open an executable that I downloaded or I want
    to run over the network. Strange enough, this is not a windows-feature but an Internet Explroer
    feature, so this is the place where we have to disable this. Now, because Internet Explorer thinks

    I am using a Pentium 4 computer (256 MB RAM) with windows 2000 service pack 4 installed in it. While

    (cut&paste) it to another location, and the installation succeeded. However, the file is still on my

  13. Downgrade Windows MCE To XP?
    (9)
    Is it possible to downgrade a Windows Media Center Edition computer to use Windows XP instead?
    Someone is having so much problems with this machine and I think it's the Operating System
    causing the problem. I told her to reinstall Windows MCE, but I don't think they gave her any
    Windows CDs. I think she got it burned from a recovery partition after I told her to look for one.
    But that doesn't seem to work. So I'm thinking of downgrading to XP as a possible solution.
    Isn't Windows MCE very similar to Windows XP, aside from the extra media features? Th....
  14. Can You Create A Folder Name "con"
    Is it possible to create a folder named "CON" in Windows? (23)
    I tried in both Windows XP Home and Professional. If you try to make a folder named "CON" Windows XP
    renames it back to what it was. So creating a new folder with the name "CON" just renames it to "New
    Folder". The bug seems like a variable that got treated as a string or vice-versa. Trying to create
    the folder from a cmd prompt failed with an error "The directory name is invalid.". This also works
    when you try to create a file called "CON", or "CON.". ".CON" shows up the way it should. Somewhere
    I found the reason that CON stands for CONsole which is device name but....
  15. The Best Version Of Windows
    (52)
    With all the different flavors of Windows, what in your opinion is the best version? Win95, Win98,
    Win98SE, WinNT, Win2000, WinXP, Vista, and even remember Windows 3.1? I hear that hardcore Windows
    users are in love with Win98SE for some reason? Is there any justification behind this? I mean
    this is a version of Windows that is definitely not supported anymore, but is the security and
    stability of this version that much better where it doesn't need support? Personally, I really
    like Win2000 over any other version. It seems more secure and stable, and I'm pr....

  19. Using Same Serial # On Multiple Copies Of Windows

    computers in my house and don't want to pay $800 for windows on each one if I build them all
    myself. I can just put same serial on all of them. But I heard this is also breaking the EULA
