@twitchBK, I see that the email address associated with your TRIGGERcmd forum account is subscribed, but maybe you have another TRIGGERcmd account?
Let me know if you want me to cancel that subscription and refund your payment so you can try again.
If you log into your TRIGGERcmd account, and click the Subscribe button at the bottom of the page, you can subscribe using a Paypal account with any email address - it doesn't need to match.
@Venkoff, you can delete the token.tkn in the C:\Users\(your user)\.TRIGGERcmdData folder then restart the agent. It will prompt for the token again, and create the computer in the new account if you use a token from the new account's Instructions page.
I recommend you backup your commands in your C:\Users\(your user)\.TRIGGERcmdData\commands.json file while you're there.
@Mitchel-Follett, can you send screenshots?
Do you get the same error in your log that mccloud showed?
This is what mine looks like:
SmartApp:
Device Handler:
If you want to shut the computer down instead of reboot, replace /r with /s.
If you type shutdown /?, you'll see all of the shutdown command's parameters.
Usage: shutdown [/i | /l | /s | /sg | /r | /g | /a | /p | /h | /e | /o] [/hybrid] [/soft] [/fw] [/f]
[/m \\computer][/t xxx][/d [p|u:]xx:yy [/c "comment"]]
No args Display help. This is the same as typing /?.
/? Display help. This is the same as not typing any options.
/i Display the graphical user interface (GUI).
This must be the first option.
/l Log off. This cannot be used with /m or /d options.
/s Shutdown the computer.
/sg Shutdown the computer. On the next boot, if Automatic Restart Sign-On
is enabled, automatically sign in and lock last interactive user.
After sign in, restart any registered applications.
/r Full shutdown and restart the computer.
/g Full shutdown and restart the computer. After the system is rebooted,
if Automatic Restart Sign-On is enabled, automatically sign in and
lock last interactive user.
After sign in, restart any registered applications.
/a Abort a system shutdown.
This can only be used during the time-out period.
Combine with /fw to clear any pending boots to firmware.
/p Turn off the local computer with no time-out or warning.
Can be used with /d and /f options.
/h Hibernate the local computer.
Can be used with the /f option.
/hybrid Performs a shutdown of the computer and prepares it for fast startup.
Must be used with /s option.
/fw Combine with a shutdown option to cause the next boot to go to the
firmware user interface.
/e Document the reason for an unexpected shutdown of a computer.
/o Go to the advanced boot options menu and restart the computer.
Must be used with /r option.
/m \\computer Specify the target computer.
/t xxx Set the time-out period before shutdown to xxx seconds.
The valid range is 0-315360000 (10 years), with a default of 30.
If the timeout period is greater than 0, the /f parameter is
implied.
/c "comment" Comment on the reason for the restart or shutdown.
Maximum of 512 characters allowed.
/f Force running applications to close without forewarning users.
The /f parameter is implied when a value greater than 0 is
specified for the /t parameter.
/d [p|u:]xx:yy Provide the reason for the restart or shutdown.
p indicates that the restart or shutdown is planned.
u indicates that the reason is user defined.
If neither p nor u is specified the restart or shutdown is
unplanned.
xx is the major reason number (positive integer less than 256).
yy is the minor reason number (positive integer less than 65536).
@Strahan, you'll find a Paypal subscribe button at the bottom of the Instructions page.
@Phillip-Brown, this isn't quite what you asked for, but I did find that Nirsoft has BluetoothView that can run a command or play an audio file when it detects a new bluetooth device.
@Popeye57, the Instructions page is in your account on the triggercmd.com website. Here's a direct link.
@kellanist, I generally update this page when I update the agent:
https://www.triggercmd.com/forum/topic/14/new-windows-agent-version
I usually update the Windows version first, then the Linux and Raspberry Pi version, then the Mac version. The agent doesn't prompt you when there's a new version. Also, I very rarely update it. If there's a feature you'd like me to add, I'm all ears.
@Solhdeck-von-Hacktric, the TRIGGERcmd site detects your browser's language. You can over-ride what Chrome reports under Settings, Advanced, Languages. Just move English to the top of the list.
Also, you mentioned things that make no sense. If you wouldn't mind helping me fix that, I would appreciate it if you tell me which text is wrong. I took Spanish in high school and college but my Spanish is till not very good.

@Martin-Musso, that's a cool idea. I did some research and figured out how to play a playlist and send the output to a Chromecast device:
"c:\Program Files (x86)\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" c:\playlists\playlist.xspf --sout="#chromecast{ip=192.168.86.25}" --demux-filter=demux_chromecast
But, I haven't figured out how to tell it to resume where it left off. This sortof worked, but only for the first thing in the playlist.
I tried this extension with no joy. https://addons.videolan.org/p/1154044/
If you do try it, you'll want to download it from the Files tab and manually drop it in
C:\Users(your user)\AppData\Roaming\vlc\lua\extensions
If you search and install it from within VLC you'll get an old version that's even worse.

@Carter-Brewer, good question. TRIGGERcmd runs a command on your computer. That command can run a script or program you've written with code. These are some common types of code, and an example command to run them:
Batch script - built into Windows: c:\scripts\mybatchfile.bat
Powershell script - built into Windows: powershell -file c:\scripts\emailmydocs.ps1
Visual Basic script - built into Windows: cscript c:\scripts\myscript.vbs
AutoIT - requires a download: c:\scripts\mycompiledscript.exe
Python script - requires a download: python c:\scripts\test.py
Try this:
Create a c:\scripts folder, open Notepad, and copy/paste the two lines below into it, then save it in your c:\scripts folder as OpenGoogle.bat.
timeout 10
start www.google.com
Then create a TRIGGERcmd command like this:
It's a simple example batch script that will open Google 10 seconds after you run it.
@Cesar-Manente, to start over from scratch, do this:
If you have commands you want to save, then take a backup of your C:\Users\(username)\.TRIGGERcmdData\commands.json file and restore it after you've re-setup your agent.
@fennectech, can you run this command to verify you're not using a proxy server?
env | grep -i proxy
It seems normal API calls are working but the websocket won't connect. I've seen that when I've tried to use a proxy server.
Do you have a special firewall that decrypts and re-encrypts your traffic by chance?
EDIT: We figured it out - @fennectech's Linux box had Node JS version 15 installed and apparently that doesn't work. We downgraded to version 14 and it worked fine.
@fennectech, is it still happening or was it a temporary problem? I just tested it on my computer and it's working for me.
If it's still happening, please confirm that computer has Internet access.
@Lewis-S, awesome. Nice job figuring that out.
@Lewis-S, are you trying to run systemctl as the pi user via TRIGGERcmd? If not, what command are trying to run, and what error are you getting?
If I know what you're trying to accomplish, I might be able to help.
@Lewis-S, I just tested this on my Raspberry Pi and it worked for me. This is my commands.json entry.
{
"trigger": "pi user test",
"command": "su - pi -c 'ls ~ > /tmp/ls.txt'",
"offCommand": "",
"ground": "background",
"voice": "",
"voiceReply": "",
"allowParams": "false"
},
It is possible to run the agent as the pi user, but I figured this would be the easier method.
If you still want to try running the agent as pi, you could start running this command while logged in as the pi user:
triggercmdagent --console
It will setup a new .TRIGGERcmdData folder in the pi user's home directory, so it will try to create another computer in your TRIGGERcmd account, so you'll either need to delete your existing computer from your account, or have a subscription.
