Trigger Action on Windows unlock

[bsfreely]

Hello!

I have used LLT since 2022 and have found it helpful. It is getting (and looking) very good!

Is there a way to set up an Action that starts on Windows unlock? There are 2 triggers that seem similar. "On resume" triggers when Windows wakes after sleep. "When user becomes active" triggers when it senses activity after inactivity (the duration of which is selectable).

One utility I use often stops working without crashing. I haven't figured out exactly what precedes this. Terminating the process and restarting it on unlock seems to work in all cases. Doing this on waking misses some cases, while after every minute or two of inactivity is not ideal because of the time it takes to restart it.

Not a bad idea. Notifications sent by windows are a bit funky sometimes so I need to see if that can work reliably.

Not sure if you're on the same way: Microsoft.Win32.SystemEvents provides an event SessionSwitch. I wrote a small demo and it works properly at least until now.

using Microsoft.Win32;

SystemEvents.SessionSwitch += SystemEvents_SessionSwitch;

private void SystemEvents_SessionSwitch(object sender, SessionSwitchEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.Reason == SessionSwitchReason.SessionLock || e.Reason == SessionSwitchReason.SessionLogoff)
    {
        MessageBox.Show($"Screen Locked: {DateTime.Now}");
    }
    else if (e.Reason == SessionSwitchReason.SessionUnlock || e.Reason == SessionSwitchReason.SessionLogon)
    {
        MessageBox.Show($"Screen Unlocked: {DateTime.Now}");
    }
}

Any updates to this one? If this way is reliable I can open a PR for that, isn't complex at all.
