My scenario is that I want to run some automated tests and the tool requires a "real" window to be opened. I would then unlock the computer, run my scripts and then for security reasons, I want to lock it again. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated Do you guys know how to unlock it via the same batch file that locks it?

Also using it for remote sessions. Tested and works on vista x86 Another nice tip is using texter (get it from lifehacker.com), add eg. "lock" as trigger and it will type rundll32.exe user32.dll, LockWorkStation for you :) Thanks, nice tip. Also using it for remote sessions. Tested and works on vista x86

Open Notepad Copy and paste this: Rundll32.exe User32.dll,LockWorkStation then save the file as lock.bat (or whatever as long as at it ends in .bat) I put it on the desktop. Double click on the file and the computer locks. This works just fine for me with windows 7.
