Screen Saver WMI Script HKEY_CURRENT_USER

  • 1.  Screen Saver WMI Script HKEY_CURRENT_USER

    Posted Oct 05, 2012 11:56 AM

    Greetings

    I am trying to use the following script to lock down our users screen savers.  The script works when I run it on the desktop of a user with admin rights but of couse it fails for user without admins.  It appears the only correct why to push it out from Altiris is using the option "Current logged-on user" which again stops me becasue they don't have admin rights.  Does anyone know I can push the folowing script via Altiris? 

    A. My goals

    1. Set Time of Screensaver to 30 mins and lock PC

    2.  Create the "System" key and NoDispScrSavPage dword

    B. Script

    HKEY_CURRENT_USER = &H80000001

    strComputer = "."
    Set objRegistry = GetObject("winmgmts:\\" & _
        strComputer & "\root\default:StdRegProv")

    strKeyPath = "Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System"
    strKeyPath0 = "Control Panel\Desktop"

    objRegistry.CreateKey HKEY_CURRENT_USER, strKeyPath0

    ValueName0 = "ScreenSaveActive"
    strValue0 = "1"
    objRegistry.SetStringValue HKEY_CURRENT_USER, strKeyPath0, ValueName0, strValue0

    ValueName1 = "ScreenSaveTimeout"
    strValue1 = "1800"
    objRegistry.SetStringValue HKEY_CURRENT_USER, strKeyPath0, ValueName1, strValue1

    objRegistry.CreateKey HKEY_CURRENT_USER, strKeyPath                

    strValueName = "NoDispScrSavPage"
    dwValue = "1"
    objRegistry.SetDWORDValue HKEY_CURRENT_USER, strKeyPath, strValueName, dwValue

     

    Thank you !
