Is Standby/Hibernation Enabled? [SOLVED]

[ken82m]

Does anyone know how to check to see if standby and hibernate

are enabled on a machine?

I'm writing a custom shutdown application and I'd like to be able

to gray them out if they are not enabled.

Thanks,

Kenny

you may use cmdline: powercfg /q. i don't know exactly, if you need adminsitrative rights for the command. if you use cmdline, you have to check and you may have to use autoit command RunAs.

Hi there,

Does THIS help?

It's for W2K but the key also exists in WVISTA.

Edit:

Func _IsPwrHibernateAllowed()
    Local $a_ret = DllCall("PowrProf.dll", "int", "IsPwrHibernateAllowed")
    Return $a_ret[0]
EndFunc

Func _IsPwrShutdownAllowed()
    Local $a_ret = DllCall("PowrProf.dll", "int", "IsPwrShutdownAllowed")
    Return $a_ret[0]
EndFunc

Func _IsPwrSuspendAllowed()
    Local $a_ret = DllCall("PowrProf.dll", "int", "IsPwrSuspendAllowed")
    Return $a_ret[0]    
EndFunc

Should probably figure out this huge ass struct: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa373215(VS.85).aspx and use this function instead though: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa372691(VS.85).aspx

Unfortunately, that just doesn't interest me lol...

Wow! Amazing what you can come up with when you know what your doing, unlike me lol

I'm gonna save your post and that page to a PDF I've always been looking for an easy way to interact with the power settings besides powercfg.exe.

Thanks alot!
