Is it possible to add parameters to run rules?

[thorstenk]

Hello,

I would like to run "pskill ipmgui" when ipmgui.exe runs. That does not work when I create a rule in dexpot. It looks to me as if the rule does not allow to specify that ipmgui is a command line argument to pskill. Is that correct and is there any other way to reach my goal?

You're right, the "Run" action for rules apparently doesn't handle parameters. Anyway, just put the command into a batch file and run that instead.

Works - although I have now a shortly flickering cmd window on my screen.

Ok, then use VBScript rather than a batch file. Put this into a .vbs file:

Code: Select all

Set sh = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
sh.Run "pskill ipmgui", 0
