I want to listen to events in my windows forms .NET application for the following system wide events :
Log Off
Lock Windows
Hibernate Started
Sleep Started
System Resumed
Are these possible?
Thanks
You need to look WMI (Windows media instrumentation). You would need to create event watchers for the above mentioned events.
