Dear Mobile PC Monitor Team
I am using your terrific program over a year now and am still stunned, by the sheer possibilities, PC Monitor offers me while I am away from my PC. But there are two thing that I miss and I can't believe i am the first to suggest this:
I want to start a predefined Command directly. E.g.: gpupdate /force, ipconfig /renew, ...
small things, one Command with arguments to start exactly when i push the button
I know there is a workaround with scheduled task set in the future and be started manually, but that should be a workaround, not a feature. i use the scheduled command only for this one purpose.
Secondly I want a few things out of PC Monitor directly as widget on my home screen.
the shutdown command for instance wound be very nice to push without opening the whole program when i am leaving my apartment.
the custom commands should also be able to put on the home screen.
Here an example:
I have a command on my workstation so start my vlc player with a certain playlist. I'm sitting on my couch and get the uncontrollable urge to listen to some music. Instead of getting my lazy ass up an walk to my PC i pull out my phone and go to:
mobilePC -> my machine -> scheduled tasks -> *wait to load* -> music_playlist -> press "start music_playlist!
i do that quite often and i think that could go faster.
Everyone here surely has their own Scenario for using this feature and I believe this would be a valuable asset to the already very long feature list of PC monitor
So please think about it and continue the good work

Hello Paul, thanks for your answer
Unfortunately I don't have programming basics, and after reading the link you posted, i don't think that "basics" are enough to implement this feature. That's why i am turning to the Professional Programmers of this Software :-)
Of course, gpupdate /force is working for me in the command shell as well, but try this command on your mobile phone:
psexec.exe -u AMKIT.dev\hofstaetter.florian -p ******* \\p0033104.t00433.amk userinitex.exe --log "d:\%username%\files\logs\system\userinit\p0033104.log" --v
try to type that in the command shell on your mobile phone and you will soon need a new one.
If this implementation would only take 5 minutes, then one of the developers @ mobilepcmonitor would have already done it, i'm sure of it. This is a complex matter.
All i want mobilepcmonitor to acknowledged the request and really think about it. i am not paying every year for a software i have to tinker together, to do the things i need, if the demand is already here. I#M sure i am not the only one requesting this. Maybe there is a legal issue there, or some obstacle why this can't be implemented. But if there is, just tell us :-)
if this is only a financing problem, please tell me how much work this would be and maybe we can work something out.
