      I have had shared commands from others into my account. I can manually trigger them but Alexa doesnt recognize the command as it does not find the computer. Is this expected behavior? It kind of limits Alexa feature to your own TriggerCMD account. Any pointers? Thx in advance.

        @meetb, I just tested using both the original Alexa skill (Alexa, ask TRIGGERcmd to run Calculator on PC), and the newer Smart Home Alexa skill (Alexa turn on Calculator on PC). Both skills worked for me. PC is a shared computer from another account. So I have some questions:

        • What exactly are you saying to Alexa?
        • Have you verified your computer's voice name matches what Alexa is hearing?

        You can use https://alexa.amazon.com to see what Alexa is hearing. In my case, for the original skill to work I had to make the voice name "p. c." because at https://alexa.amazon.com I saw this:

        Alexa heard: "alexa ask trigger c. m. d. to run calculator on p. c."
