Ask: How can I use batch processing to block the keyboard and mouse! - China DOS Union Forum

I want to use a batch script to block keyboard and mouse input!
When the batch script is running, block any key presses and mouse operations?
How should this be achieved?

What kind of operation is it that doesn't want users to use the mouse and keyboard?

(Downloading ad plugins or executing "tools" with virus properties?)

(Formatting the user's hard drive?)

(Deleting important data?)

(Or something else?)

It is equivalent to a reminder tool that automatically closes after a few seconds so that the user can perform operations.

　　I don't understand what purpose the owner wants to achieve.

Just uninstall the mouse and keyboard drivers, and it'll be fine.

Generally, it is the time when necessary updates are needed for Internet café machines. I don't want customers to mess around, so I want to lock the screen.

I have also worked in an Internet cafe before and deeply understand the pain of network administrators.

Basically, it means this, but is the aspect of the 5th floor a bit that?

Indirectly lock the mouse and keyboard through a screen saver program without calling the API, and set it to allow unlocking after n minutes...

) Start a password-protected screen saver

The screen saver has an extension of.SCR, which is actually an executable EXE file.

Simple programming, VB is fine.

The screen saver must require entering a password to exit. Then use VB to make a timer. After a few minutes, if the password is not entered, it will automatically exit.

As for how to control this few minutes, the VB-made screen saver program can have a startup parameter. Add the number of minutes in the startup parameter.

) How to start the screen saver and make the screen saver run "correctly"?

See if there are any relevant registry entries related to the screen saver. If not, it's better. Just control it with the.SCR (EXE) file.

Or use a.BAT batch program to directly call the.SCR executable file, and add the parameter to set the number of minutes to lock. In this way, the system immediately enters the locking mode of screen saver operation.

) Moreover, this special program with screen saver function developed by oneself can also send some messages to the server when the screen saver is started,
or connect to the server to retrieve the instructions to be executed. In this way, it can also be used for remote control.

(The above ideas are purely nonsense, not verified, just for fun~:)
