@Smart-Communities, that's correct. It doesn't download the latest version when you run the pre-downloaded agent installer on your thumb drive, it will install that specific version when you run it.

So I'm guessing either the uninstall / re-install fixed it, or maybe there was a bug in the version you had on your thumb drive.

Anyway I'm glad it's working now. Sorry for the trouble.

@Antonio-Francisco-S-Santos, awesome. I'm glad you figured it out.

@Its-xLuiz please try this:

nircmd sendkeypress rwin+home && nircmd sendkeypress rwin+down

Windows key + Home minimizes all windows except the current one.
Windows key + Down arrow minimizes the current Window.

@regfixit interesting. I have nothing in my code that would do that, so I'm thinking Samsung's system is doing it. I'll look into it though.

I imagine that could be a problem if you're using it to turn a light on/off via X10 or something. Ideally you'd see the correct status in SmartThings.

Thanks for reporting the problem.

EDIT: I see the problem in my code. I'm working on it.

EDIT2: It should work now. Please let me know if you still see the problem, but I think the on/off status should persist now.

@Russ It's working! 👏🏿 👏🏿 Thank you very much!! 💪🏿

Sorry @hdegenaro, I saw this and forgot to respond.

You can say Alexa, ask TRIGGERcmd to open X if you use the TRIGGERcmd, TRIGGER command, or TC skills. This page shows the sentence format for those skills.

You can say, Alexa turn on X if you use the newer TRIGGERcmd Smart Home skill. This page shows the "Smart Home" skill sentence format.

Also, if you use an Alexa routine, you can use any word or phrase you want. For example I say, Alexa, open sesame to open my garage using a routine that translates "open sesame" to "ask TRIGGERcmd to run russ on garage" so it runs the command on my Raspberry Pi that opens my garage via the TRIGGERcmd skill.

@Russ thanks for coming up with a solution so quickly. I followed your instructions and I am up and running again! 👍

@João-Pedro-Vital, sorry it didn't work out.

@Antonio-Francisco-S-Santos said in Testing: triggering from Alexa app on Android phone doesn't work for me.:

Olá Amigo, também estou tentando executar um aplicativo no meu celular android com a Alexa mas não tive êxodo, Alguém poderia nos ajudar?

I used Google Translate to translate that as, "Hello Friend, I am also trying to run an application on my android phone with Alexa but I had no exodus, could anyone help us?"

I just tested this on my own Android phone. I opened the Alexa app and tapped this Alexa icon:
d5986b15-2b38-409f-b07a-34dcc5802cd3-image.png

Then I said one of the sentances shown in the Smart Home Voice Commands page, "Alexa, turn on calculator on family" and the command ran on my computer.

Please confirm you've enabled the Smart Home version of the Alexa app. If not, that might be the problem. You might have enabled one of the non-Smart Home versions which are not as easy to use.

@Benny-Grahn, would you mind sharing your solution?

Did you use a bookmark URL?

@David-Hess awesome. Thank you!

@Russ Yes it worked, thank you very much

@glytch3r-arts, thanks for the idea.

I'm thinking about this. It would be a feature request because the Alexa skills currently don't interact beyond when they trigger the command. I'd have to add a way to do that, which might not be too difficult to implement in the non-Smart Home version of the TRIGGERcmd Alexa skills.

@Russ i already have uac disable, and ticked administrator to that shortcut in that folder, but this way don't start when windows 10 start

@jsmr1360 Instead of talking to your computer, just talk to your phone. Sounds like you want to overcomplicate things.

@Hey-Artur, yea for Alexa or Google Assistant to find your commands, you have to fill in the command's Voice field.

Maybe I should change this to say, "Required for Alexa and Google Assistant":

@Russ Thanks Russ
