How to start YoWindow via batch?

Post by madmax25 »

As the subject says, I wonder, how I can start YoWindow using a batch file?
When I try ...

Code: Select all

@echo off
%windir%\system32\yowindow.scr
exit
...it is always starting as a programm including the title bar and the settings window, not as a screensaver.
How do I have to edit this above mentioned code in order to make it run the wanted way, please?

Hi,

I haven't tried this, but I suppose
"C:\Program Files\YoWindow\yowindow.exe"
should do the job.

Let me know if this works.
Goodluck,
Fred

No, it doesn't.
No screensaver mode either.
I guess, it's a matter of finding the proper command line switch, which I don't know, yet.
