Thanks @tony-bineyard. I added this to the list of examples that show up in the agent GUI.

@russ @Tony-Bineyard How does this work if you sit down at your computer 10 minutes later, do the monitors turn back on?

[Russ]

@heyfrank, I don't know. I don't use this because I don't use a Linux computer for my desktop.

If you want to turn monitors off with windows (jiggle mouse turns them back on)

powershell (Add-Type '[DllImport(\"user32.dll\")]^public static extern int SendMessage(int hWnd, int hMsg, int wParam, int lParam);' -Name a -Pas)::SendMessage(-1,0x0112,0xF170,2)
exit

So this is basically what I need, did you manage to do this?

I want to play games on my TV which is one of 3 monitors I have. And i want to turn off both monitors to have only the TV i'm using to game
