Locking A Windows PC In Visual Basic .NET
[VB.NET, Visual Basic, C#]
In our previous post, “Locking A Windows PC In C# & .NET”, we looked at how to lock a Windows PC in C#.
In this post we will look at how to do the same thing in Visual Basic.NET.
The approach, and the code, are very similar.
Imports System.Runtime.InteropServices
<DllImport("user32.dll", SetLastError:=True)>
Private Shared Function LockWorkStation() As Boolean
The invocation is the same.
LockWorkStation();
TLDR
You can call the Windows API from Visual Basic .NET, and invoke the LockWorkStation() method to lock your computer.
