I have some scripts that run every day.

They run without a problem if the computer is un-locked.

However, if it is locked, they don't.

Is there any instruction that can be scheduled through a script that can un-lock the computer and then run the other script?

I tried writing one with:

Send("^!{DEL"})

and then entering the username and password, but it didn't work.

If it cannot be done, is there a way to keep the computer from locking?

I tried moving the mouse every 15 minutes, but it still locked.

(I can't change the screensaver settings)

Thanks!

If you can't do that, then most likely you won't be able to prevent it from locking.

Your best bet is to tweak your script to work while locked. (Avoid Send, MouseMove, PixelSearch, etc...)

you could just disbale the computer from auto locking. turn off the "lock computer on screen saver" option in the screen saver.

and if your still worried about security, build one of the many screen locker scripts around here on the site into your script. then use it for the security of having the computer locked whilst your script runs.

hope that helps.
