I'm using a SystemParametersInfo call to attempt to manage the screen saver. All I want to do is modify the ScreenSaveActive bit in the registry and have the OS recognize it (and occasionally set it back to -0-). Theoretically this should be easy to accomplish through the call shown below. If I trace the call with SysInternals (si)Registry Monitor I can see the call being made. Unfortunately in the si QueryValue for the key...

I need to disable the screen saver, due to an Excel "bug". I thought I had the following code working, but now all I get is code 127.

I need the csharp (C#) function for this API function: SystemParametersInfo(SPI_GETWORKAREA, 0, &rc, 0); Or must I pInvoke this (also)? My biggest problem with C# is to find the C# function for API functions? Is there any help for this available anywhere?

Hello, I want to change the keyboard language. Does anyone have an example code in VB6 for that? I know already from MSDN that it should be possible with the SystemParametersInfo and the SPI_SETDEFAULTINPUTLANG and you have to use the HKL. But I really do not understand how to do that. I would be very grateful for help! BigWilli

Ok, so this isn't necessarily a programming issue, but anyways. I've managed to write that random wallpaper changer i've been wanting to make, but i've run into a little problem. According to the MS Knowledge Base, SystemParametersInfo() can't take a .jpg file as an argument when changing the wallpaper (it doesn't work, i've tried it), only .bmps so i'm stuck converting one of my many wallpapers from .jpg to .bmp, passing that to...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
