Locking Workstation

by Aug 30, 2018

If you’d like to lock the current workstation from within PowerShell, you can take advantage of the fact that PowerShell can run executables. Here is a quick function that uses rundll32.exe to call an internal Windows function that locks the workstation:

function Lock-Workstation
{
  rundll32.exe user32.dll,LockWorkStation
}
