How to use Windows task scheduler to dim monitor after x mins of inactivity ?

[Rexadev]

1. Using Task Scheler Trigger a Command after 1 min of inactivity to save the current brightness and change brightness to 0
2. Using Task Scheduler to Use the saved brightness value to restore the brightness setting when activity is detected ? IIRC TaskScheduler can't do this.

You don't need Task Scheduler to accomplish it. You can simply set Power & sleep settings of the OS.

I want to dim not turn off, does monitorian support commands

[emoacht]

I see. You will need to create a script or something to detect the inactivity and send a command to this app.

well you help me with powershell code or if not that python ?

[emoacht]

I am not very familiar with scripting.
And I should inform you that detecting inactivity would be tougher than you might expect. I would suggest starting by looking for that method.

Windows Task Sheduler as a inactivity trigger

[emoacht]

If you mean idle trigger, based on Task idle conditions, I am not sure if it meets your requirements but of cource, you can try.

Will you help me with the code to implment login in the main thread

[emoacht]

No. In the first place, I don't see any value to keep a monitor on while the user is absent.
