Logout Scirpt?

**Swimming_Bird** · January 19, 2006

I'm suprised how difficult it has been to find this.

In windows xp how can i get it to run something on logout?

thanks

Edit: i'm working on a single computer not with any domain or any sort of group policies.

It's quite easy, actually.

Start > Run > gpedit.msc > User Configuration > Windows Settings > Scripts (Logon/Logoff).

I'm assuming script name is arbitrary and the parameters are a command line to run. am i correct?

If I understand you correctly, yes. You run a logout script just as you would a logon script (script types, parameters, etc...).

Side note: As far as I know, the group policy editor (gpedit.msc) is accessible in XP pro only, not home ed.
