The script launcher

We need a script launcher as PowerShell scripts run in the foreground and we don’t want the window of this script to appear at all.

This one can be a .vbs file that will be setup like this:

  • In Task Scheduler
    • Action: Start a program
    • Program/script: wscript
    • Add arguments (optional): <path\to\the\.ps1\file>

Here is the .vbs script:

command = "powershell.exe -ExecutionPolicy Bypass C:\Users\Ismael\Documents\GitHub\djismgaming.github.io\blogupdate.ps1"

set shell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")

shell.Run command, 0
