paul Posted October 5, 2011 Report Posted October 5, 2011 I'm on Windows 7. Anyone know how to make a macro that is activated when new Windows Updates are available? Try this - you may have to experiment: Assume the macro you want to run is called M1 Using the built-in Windows 7 Task Scheduler, create a new scheduled task: Trigger: Begin the task: On an event Basic Log: System Source: WindowsUpdateClient Event ID: 1 Action: Start a program Program/script: C:\Program Files (x86)\Macro Express Pro\MeProc.exe /AM1 As you can see, there are a lot of trigger log values, and Sources, and Event IDs. I've simply taken a guess that this may work. Let me know. Quote
