    @gutopa, I've been thinking about your question and how I'd implement a solution. Please look here for what I'm thinking.

    @pnick,

    For some reason I ran into the same problem when I said, "Alexa, tell Trigger CMD to open movies". Alexa identified "movies" as the name of a computer for some reason.

    This phrase worked better: "Alexa, ask Trigger CMD to run movies"

    I'll see if I can "train" Alexa to understand the previous phrase better.

    EDIT: I see I never implemented "to open" with Alexa. I'll look into adding that, but you can only use these for now:

    to run to trigger run trigger

    EDIT 2: There's something strange about how Alexa handles the word movies, so I'd avoid using it as a voice trigger for your command. I've been trying to tell Alexa to recognize movies as a command and she just won't.

    @nathan7, if you delete your commands.json file, it will replace it with the original.

    The only way I know how to do it is via SmartThings.

    Alexa routine -> SmartThings -> TRIGGERcmd -> computer

    @wadeal, the point of the voice property of your computer is to specify something you can say to Alexa that makes it easy for her to recognize. So I recommend something simple in your computer's voice field like, "movies"

    Alexa/Google Assistant/Cortana don't use the computer's name field, they use the voice field to find your computer.

    Click the blue Edit button for your computer on the website to get to that voice trigger field.

    Just to clarify:

    Bat file:

    nircmd setdefaultsounddevice "VG248" 1
    nircmd.exe setsysvolume 35000
    PlayAlarmVBS.vbs

    vbs file:

    Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")

    Comandline = "C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\Spotify\Spotify.exe"
    WScript.sleep 500
    CreateObject("WScript.Shell").Run("linktoplaylist")
    WScript.sleep 3000
    WshShell.SendKeys "{ENTER}"
    WScript.sleep 100
    WshShell.SendKeys "^{RIGHT}"

    @meyerdenney, I use an Alexa "Routine" to open my garage with "Alexa, open sesame", but it depends on my SmartThings system. That works because routines work with Smart Home systems.

    Otherwise, I don't know of a way to do that with Alexa. I wish Alexa had something like Google Assistant's "routines" (they used to be called "shortcuts").

    @tim-s, your theory seems reasonable. I was sad to find out Google blocks most skills on their watches too. It's frustrating.

    @bruceybizzit, I think you should try either checking your debug.log file for clues, or deleting your computer in the web gui, and deleting your c:\users(username).TRIGGERcmdData folder. After deleting those, when you run TRIGGERcmd again it should prompt for the token.
