| Vista Ultimate x64 | Re: how to make a shortcut to lock computer and activate screen saver For the screensaver, find the .scr file in C:\Windows\System32\ then create a shortcut to it with the -s flag. For example: Target: C:\Windows\system32\[screensaver].scr -s For locking the workstation, use: C:\Windows\System32\rundll32.exe user32.dll, LockWorkStation Not sure you can do both in one, but I think you can set the screensaver to ask for a password afterwards, which has the same result. |
