Hi @tlmarques, thanks for reaching us using the Live Community.

It could be possible by calling the required powershell commands from the Python code supported by the agent.

Take a look and use this example I have created to automatically lock the screen after 10 minutes of inactivity:

import subprocess # Set the auto screen lock timeout comand, the value in seconds is defined at "-Value" result = subprocess.run(['powershell.exe', '-command','New-ItemProperty -Path "HKLM:\\SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Policies\\System" -Name "InactivityTimeoutSecs" -Value 10 -PropertyType DWord -Force'], shell=True, capture_output=True, text=True) # Check if the PowerShell command ran successfully and returns a message if result.returncode == 0: print("Auto screen lock timeout set successfully.") else: print("Error setting auto screen lock timeout:") print(result.stderr)

If this post answers your question, please mark it as the solution.
