    @Russ Unfortunately I still get the "undefined" response. Also, duplicates still appear on me occasionally--when I notice it I use the rename trick to clear them, but didn't see that one.

      Ok. I appreciate your patience. I'll try to reproduce these two problems. I thought I fixed the duplicate commands problem in v1.0.5 of the Windows agent.

      Are you saying the word, "run" before your trigger's voice word?

        I reproduced it!

        I said, Alexa, tell trigger c m d, Calculator.

        Alexa said, cannot find a trigger called "undefined" on RussFam.

        Sweet. I can fix this.

          @Russ No, I wasn't saying "run," but when I do it works.

            Awesome. Thanks for showing me another bug. I'll do an update to the Alexa skill to allow a single word to represent the trigger's voice word to run on your default computer.

                @Christian-Robinson Amazon approved my update to the skill, so now you can say, "Alexa, tell trigger c m d, Calculator."

                    @venkat-karthik, you just do this:

                    • Take a note of your computer name in you list of computers.
                    • Click your name in the upper right corner of the web interface while logged in.
                    • Write or paste the computer name (not its voice word) in the default computer field.

                    Then you can leave the computer name off when you tell Alexa to run your command.

                      Got it. Looks like you already set that up for me .. as I could see my laptop on the default computer field .. and it is working ! Thank you!

                      P.S: Is there a location on this forum or site for "How-to's" / Knowledge base - for people to find such information there .. if yes, please direct me to the same, if not, might be a good idea to create one 🙂
