How can I trigger a command/script when a Windows workstation is locked or unlocked?

I have a workstation running Windows 7 Pro at work. My problem is I keep on forgetting to clock in/clock out (using the intranet timesheet system). Is there a way to run a script or command to automatically open the timesheet page each time I lock/unlock my station?

Solution

  • Yes, windows 7 task scheduler allows a dizzying array of new ways to schedule tasks:

    One is on log on, and another is on event which could be a security event for locking the workstation.

    Administrative Tools --> Task Scheduler
    - Create Task 
    --> Triggers Tab 
    --> New Button 
    --> Begin Task drop down box... 

etc.
