wsh

I'm attempting to create a remote powershell popup window to any users logged into a target computer. I have found a simple script that does create a popup window: (New-Object -ComObject wscript.shell).popup("THIS IS A TEST MESSAGE") However, I cannot run this script on remote devices. We have powershell remoting restricted in our environment so I cannot use the invoke-command cmdlet in powershell. I have bypassed this restriction in the past by using the Invoke-WmiMethod cmdlet and creating a new process remotely to achieve the desired results, like such: Invoke-WmiMethod -Class Win32_Process

I need to close the command prompt window using sendkeys function, but when I used the below code it did not work as running of some betch file is in progress so its not taking these below options. require 'win32ole' system("start cmd.exe") sleep(5) # Create an instance of the Wscript Shell: wsh = WIN32OLE.new('Wscript.Shell') # Try to activate the command window: if wsh.AppActivate('cmd.exe') sleep(1) wsh.SendKeys('cd \\') wsh.SendKeys('{ENTER}') # change the directory path where mtn folder is residing wsh.SendKeys('cd ') wsh.SendKeys "C://mtn-3//mtn-2.2//" wsh.SendKeys('{ENTER}') wsh

I am trying to create a scripting language by myself (it doesn't have to be perfect - although that would be great if it was), mostly because i'm doing it for fun and to learn about how they're created etc. According to the answer over here: Creating a scripting language what I'm supposed to be looking into is this: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/xawadt95%28VS.85%29.aspx . But, I have absolutely no idea what that MSDN page is on about. Can somebody please help? P.S. Are there any free/open source scripting languages that target the Windows Script Host, that also have full source code

Recently I have been asked to do some maintenance on a VB6 application. This involves some file IO. I find the IO operations offered by referencing the windows script host and using the FileSystemObject a lot friendlier than the IO operations that come with VB6. But will this cause problems because of security issues, or because of the fact that the script host will be disabled on some users' computers? Update (aug 20, 2012): Since asking this question we have encountered the problem of a non functional scrrun.dll three times among 3000 customers. We had to fix these manually through remote

I want to have Javascript run say cmd.exe if there is already not one running. I was hoping there is a way to have javascript look at running processes and then if the name is in the list dont run. but if it's not run the process. Javascript is not the best route for scripting OS-level process control. If javascript were able to have such direct access to your operating system, it would be an extreme security risk to ever browse the internet. Internet Explorer does have a mechanism to script Windows from javascript, but you would have to adjust your security settings to allow this to occur.
